Had my growth scan yesterday baby is measuring fine, not a monster yet! Lol
Anyone else starting to feel nervous about birth? Lol
I know I can do it, I birthed my son naturally in the birthing pool with only gas and air, he was back to back and 10lbs, surely this can’t be worse than that? LOL
Would love to hear some second time birth positive stories :D
Girlsway my 2nd was my fastest labour - 90mins I've had 4 out of 6 back to back as well with only gas and air. I had a pool birth this time and it was great! Can't wait to see her!
girlsway 2nd baby is much quicker and easier than 1st :) all mine are back to back too, well they are back to back for the labour then they turn at the end and come out right way, it seems back to back is the only way they can fit through my pelvis.
my first was over 12 hours labour with around a 1 hour delivery and my second was a 4 hour labour with a quick 8 min delivery so much quicker :) both drug free homebirths and number 2 was in water (i love waterbirths)
you did your 1st drug free no interventions despite back to back and his size so this one will be no issue :) it will be quicker though so make sure you get in that pool ASAP if you want a waterbirth!!
Thanks SO much! I was so tempted by homebirth this time but lucky enough to live next to a wonderful midwife led birth centre that is so lovely and feels like
Being at home so went for that :) my son turned last minute too! I did have a nasty 2nd degree tear hoping I don’t get that again but it’s so reassuring to hear I’ll most likely have a quicker birth this time, my son was 15 hours start to finish!
even if she is back to back it will be so much quicker and easier i promise :) your body has done it once before, it knows what to do, you will smash it on the day never doubt that!!
if you feel at home in the birth centre then go there :)
i know lots of women who tore 1st time (mostly 2nd or even 3rd degree) then didnt tear with their others or if they did tear it was less severe so fingers crossed!! ive been very lucky and never torn but it always scares me that i might so i understand the worry!!
