1st vs 2nd pregnancy?! Common differences OBGYN hears from patients 

I was induced with my first and I hope this is what it’s like with my second haha 😅. Congrats!!!🤍

I had my son in 3 1/2 hrs so I’m so nervous about how fast this baby is gonna come out! 😂

I had my first son in an hour and he came in the car so I'm planning a home birth for this one

Are the sex of your babies different Did you feel any different in your pregnancy?

Pt? Personal training?

​That is physical therapy ​@@caribbean9829

And?

Did it go quicker? (Looks like you posted this comment a year ago.) I'm pregnant with my 2nd and I had a 48 hr labor.

@@diannea.7386 yes! early labor started around 5pm and she was born at 3:59am but because I prepared SO much beforehand this time with breathing techniques and just mentally having no fear I didn't realize I was in active labor until it was almost time to push. my husband called my doula and midwife around 2am they arrived around 3am and she was born just before 4am. I didn't even know I was in transition and pushed even less than 30 mins. maybe like 10 mins? so it was much shorter. wanna know the only bad news? 😬 I had prodromal labor every night and some during the day for 6 days before that. it was sooo exhausting and I never knew if or when it would turn into true labor so that was wild. hopefully that doesn't happen to you though. that was the ONE thing I wasn't mentally prepared for but it really helped speed up the actual labor I think and made me mentally stronger weirdly enough. having multiple nights of intense contractions lasting all night made real labor a breeze (other than making knowing when to call the birth team kinda confusing lol)

@@diannea.7386 cool. RU-vid deleted my entire long reply. that's nice. yes it went much faster! but I had prodromal labor for 6 days before 😖

YT is troll. Labor for 6 days before!!! You poor woman!! I'll pray that isn't the case for me. Thank you for replying!! 🥰🥰

@@diannea.7386 I don't think it's super common but still normal. was kinda hell though figuring out if it was gonna turn into the real deal every night haha when I finally called the midwife and doula, they were only at my house for about an hour before pushing. I didn't even know I was in transition and thought I called them too early because I thought my contractions slowed when they arrived. (maybe a slight rest period is a sign of transition? I'm not sure) either way it was very good this time! I'm sure yours will be as well. good luck!

Sending good energy and prayers 🤍 God will be with you every step of the way.

@@cecilia6165 almost 7 weeks and so far so good! The prayers are so appreciated! 💗💗💗

May God bless you

How’s your pregnancy going now? I am in the same boat

How did it go?? I had it too and I’m 4 weeks pregnant and super nervous

Me too 😢

How far along are you?

My first I was in labor for 25/26 hrs was pushing for a little more than 3 hrs. Pregnancy with bby #2 7 years later lol hope my body didn’t forget my first birth cause I need this to go by fast this time..

@@tinktinkkks4209 9 weeks

@@tjsmelser7130 aww what a blessing I’m 21 weeks I was hoping for smby to be close to delivering I need an update 😂 hopefully our births go fast I was also a little traumatized from my first birth.. may god let this be nice and easy pregnancy as well as labor and delivery cause we deserve it🙏☺️

My first was the same. Waters broke around 2am, our daughter was born at 5:40am that same morning. I pushed for like 5 minutes. Pregnant with the 2nd and I’m scared I’m going to be the minority whose 2nd labour is longer

I would look into tandem nursing.

It depends how far your body reached in labor, how many centimeters dilated. More advanced stage in labor might mean a faster labor next time but a C-section early in labor usually the body resembles a first time labor next time.

Thank you! So appreciative for all the excellent resources and information you provide!

Yes, you can. Sperm can survive in the vagina for up to 5 days. If you ovulate earlier you can definitely still get pregnant. I ovulate day 9 and my periods are 5 days long so I can definitely can pregnant while still on my period

No. Pregnancy can only occur when you are fertile. On periods thats not the case so chances of conceiving are close to zero

@@nehamumtaz7999umm u can definitely get pregnant from having sex while your on your period, the chances are extremely low but it can happen... Conception requires the meeting of sperm with an egg. Once the ovary releases an egg, the egg lives for only between 12 and 24 hours. The sperm can live for about 3 days. The typical menstrual cycle is 28 days. Day 1 is the start of your period. Ovulation usually occurs around day 14 (but it could be around days 12, 13, or 14). Ovulation is when the ovary releases an egg for fertilization. If sperm is available in the uterus, pregnancy can occur. Ovulation can vary based on your cycle. Some people have a longer cycle of around 35 days between periods. Ovulation would then happen around day 21. Those with a shorter cycle of 21 days ovulate around day 7.

Same!!!

I just found out I’m pregnant with my second and hoping my experience will be similar. I lost 20lbs during the first trimester of my first pregnancy. I was miserable

@travie786 congratulations!!! My first pregnancy I couldn't get out of bed and threw up everyday. This time around I'm 8 weeks and haven't thrown up once. I'm still a bit off certain foods though. Good luck 👍🏼

@@catsforever3999 thanks so much. And congratulations to you as well.

​@@catsforever3999 What is the sex of baby? I'm curious to know the difference
