OK dp and I are discussing
I know folklore is the third labour/birth is diferent from the others.
What about subsequent ones? I told dp I thought they reverted to the old pattern ie if first and second were late they usually are too, he thinks they get successively earlier
thanks
ds2 should be 40 mins not 409 mins

oh and yes, my afterpains were worse with ds2, and with ds3 they were agonising, just like having contractions all over again
would put me off having another
mine are first contraction to out. if it's waters brteaking then... had them broken for the first 2, so maybe tat doesn't count, but for ds3 waters went and he was out oooh, 5-10 mins later
oh god are we taklking waters breaking to out?
ds1 - 2 hours
ds2 - 1 minute
ds3 5 minutes

ds1 induced 2 weeks early
induction to birth around 4 hours
ds1 one days early - first contraction to birth around 409minutes (no typo

ds3 - 2 weeks early - first proper contraction to birt about 40 minutes
maybe i am just a freaky birther though
Thanks all
sunshine imagine how you'll feel if number 5 is late!!!
