Hi i am expecting my second in feb and just wondered if you could tell me how similar your labours/birth etc were?xxx

Only difference for me was bcos mws Knew it was my 2nd they expected me to know what to do and when ie pushing. And tbh I didn't. I feel if I ever had a 3rd I'd know lol. In a sense the pushing was easier and quicker, but my contractions lasted longer, and my waters leaked all day, the day before, but that was bcoz she was back to back.

I wasn't as scared though. Bcoz you know the out come is so wonderful. I wish you could bottle that moment your baby is there to see before your eyes, and the shock and love takes over, and you just think wow, we're together!

i wish i cld help ya but with my 2nd i had 2 have a c-setion, because she was breech and there was hardly any fluid around her so it was pointless trying to turn her.

I'm due my 6th baby and all 5 of my births have been more or less the same. The last one however was slightly different as he came so quick the midwives weren't here! lol Hopefully you won't have that problem. As many girls and midwives will tell you though all births can be so different so i would just say go with the flow on the big day and try not to worry about it xxxxxx

My first labour was indcued at 36wk+ and after a long labour my dd placenta ruptured, so i had emsc.

I am allowed an indcued vbac this time so hoping its no where near the same.x
