yes - I didn't have them at all with 1 & 2, or very slight if they were happening. I don't mean to scare you, but I had bad after pains too for about 30 -60 mins after DS was born, MW said it was common for them to get worse the more kids you have. Just so you are prepared I stayed on the G & A for an extra hour

Definately worse than before. I've always had them from early on but these ones def seem more painful. Well maybe not painful but i def have to sit still for a moment whilst they pass whereas they didn't do that first and second time around.
