Second Pregnancy, Faster Labor?

Question

With my first I carried her to 41 weeks and had to be induced.  It took me 28 hours to dilate to 10 cm.  I'm just curious if any of you ladies delivered your second before 40 weeks and if your labor went faster.

Answer

14 hour labor —> 3 hour labor!! 
I’m expecting baby number three to basically be sneezed out 🤷🏼‍♀️

Answer

With my first I was induced at 40+ 4. My water finally broke 24 hours after induction. I was in active labor for about 10 hours but they gave me medicine to get things going so I would assume had it happened naturally I would have been in labor much longer.
With my second I was 37+2. My water broke at 1 AM and didn’t have contractions for a few hours after.  We went in around 4 AM. I think I was in active labor for about 8 hours or so. I pushed twice and he was here. In fact the nurse asked me to cross my legs because my midwife wasn’t even at the hospital yet.  This was such a smooth delivery and am hoping my upcoming delivery is similar to this one.

Answer

My labor time was cut in half with my second.
