Hi everyone

So I had my first a few months ago.
I was induced and got to 9cm dilated before having an EMCS.

I'm wondering if we have a second, whether the labour process will be quicker in terms of dilating because my body has done it before? (Pretty much)

Obviously not the pushing as I only did a bit of that but the contractions themselves.

Anyone have any experience/knowledge?

Thank you xx

You have laboured to almost fully diluted before so yes, it’s likely you will l our quicker next time
