Was your second labor easier than your first?

Question

Feel free to comment if you think it gets easier with the 3rd, 4th, etc!

Answer

Wouldn’t say easier but definitely quicker. My first I was in labor 3+ days since I was only 30 weeks, but my contractions were super gradual and didn’t get too intense till the last day even though they were every 3 minutes for 2 days. Only pushed 3 minutes since she was a preemie. Second time labor was intense, lasting only 7 hours and pushing 8 minutes for my full term baby. Hard to compare the two, but i had them both natural and medication-free.

Answer

Yes. My first I was induced which was hell. But my third was most definitely my easiest. I labored at home all day then eventually went to the hospital. By the time you reach 3 I feel like you know your own body. He was the only one who broke my water naturally and bc I wasn’t￼￼ dilated￼ fully they had to push on my pelvic bone to hold him in.

Answer

My first labor & delivery is what every women dreams about. I swear it was literally the best unmedicated birth.. My 2nd one I had so many complications it made me never wanna get pregnant again... yet here I am due in November & I can only hope & pray the odds are in my favor again. 😂

Answer

Yes but only because I didn't have preeclampsia the second time around
