did you have fears about #2+? was it the same? harder? easier? across the board, in TTC journey/pregnancy/L&D?
-
I had such an easy pregnancy/labor with #1 I defnitely worry that #2 will be much rougher! Pregnancy will be harder just due to chasing a toddler I imagine, and maybe labor will be harder since I won't be able to work out throughout pregnancy like I did last time...?
-
Not TTC #2 till later this year, but I worry about this as well. DS was super nice to me and I loved being pregnant. He was also small so delivery wasn't bad. Wives tale is your second will be the opposite of #1. I'm trembling in my boots just thinking about that being true.... *gulp*
-
I can't speak to the delivery as I'm still pregnant but thus far my ttc and pregnancies have both been easy. I am hoping the delivery follows suit!
-
TTC process was super easy for both #1 and #2. With Pregnancy #1, I had more aches & pains since I got BFP. I'm still pregnant with #2, but the aches and pains hadn't been bothersome until 3rd trimester
-
TTC for both was easy. Pregnancy #1 was way harder from the start. Still pregnant with #2 and I'm just starting to get tired and uncomfortable at 27 weeks. Yet it still doesn't compare to pregnancy #1
-
It took six cycles to get pregnant with #1 and I'm worried that it will take the same or longer for #2 (I want two children close in age, so I feel like there's a smaller window to ideally get pregnant for #2 and it's closing quickly).
Pregnancy for #1 was pretty easy, so I was kind of just assuming #2 will be similar, haha. Naive, maybe, but I'm not really worried about it! I don't care if it's rougher if it means conceiving in my dwindling window!!
-
For #2, pregnancy was more achey and tiring (probably bc I had a toddler to chase after), delivery was more painful bc I didn't have an epidural, but recovery was much better.
-
I had a rough pregnancy (cyst, spikes in BP) and a rough delivery with LO #1, so I'm praying #2 is a lot smoother. I laugh that my pregnancy/birth suits my daughter's personality! I'm thinking (or praying) my next child will be a lot more mellow
-
Same ttc journey for both, and same pregnancy so far as well. I'll check back in about the labor part
-
I'm only worried about the labor/recovery part of #2. I really don't want another blood transfusion and weeks of being completely out of commission.
-
I'm very nervous about this. I had such an easy and enjoyable pregnancy, I'm nervous about having morning sickness or exhaustion, etc with #2. I didn't have an easy labor though, so at least I am prepared for that.
-
For whatever reason I had horrible back pain with number two, starting at like 6 weeks. Then labor was all back labor. That was probably the biggest difference for me. TTC, other symptoms were pretty similar. Pregnancy was harder the second time overall but that was because I had a toddler to chase. Birth and recovery though were easier because it was a VBAC.

Both were about the same, but the babies are totally different.
