When did you go into labour with second child

[Secondtimemummyworries]

I’m 38+3 currently with baby number 2. I went into spontaneous labour with dd at 39+5 and she arrived at 39+6 after a 15 hour labour with 1 hour pushing. However this was four years ago. When did you go into labour with dc2? And what’s the age gap between dc1 and dc2?

DC1 on my due date! DC2 three weeks early.

Sorry age gap is two years. With dc3 I was on my due date actually at my 40 week appointment. I went from the appointment to the Labour ward and she was born a few hours later.

Bizarrely also 2 year age gap, first child on due date and second child 6 weeks early! That took me by surprise

Had my son 2 years ago at 42+5. I'm 39+5 weeks now and waiting patiently, I really hope this one comes earlier.

2yr age gap with DDs

DD1 was a week late.

With DD2 I was being scanned regularly during the last 2 months as there was concern over my levels of amniotic fluid. Then my father had a heart attack and was hospitalised. I think the stress brought on my labour and DD2 was a week early.

Dc 1 - 3 days over
dc2 - 12 days over, 3 sweeps as well. Delivered naturally the night before my appt to be induced.

Had an attempted sweep today at 39+3 but my cervix is still 2cm and fully closed. I have a feeling img ping to go overdue with this baby. I was really hoping to be at least 1cm 😂

DD1 went into labour at 39+5 and she was born on 39+6

DD2 nearly 5 years later I was induced at 40+1 after an unsuccessful sweep on my due date (induction was because of my age)

DC1 waters broke at 2am at exactly, they were born at 6.55pm after 4.5 hours of pushing. I was exactly 39 weeks

Dc2 was born within 1.5hrs of first contraction and only pushing twice. Arrived on due date.

DC3 was born within 1hr of having waters broken (was due to be induced due to exoected small birth weight). Arrived at 37+3

2 years between each birth

Dd1 was 40+4
Dd2 was 40+4
Dd3 was 40+1
Currently 39+6 with dc4 and still cooking

3.5 year gap between my two

DS 40+1 spontaneous labour 12 hours
DD 41+0 (but also 40+1 by my dates!) Spontaneous labour, also 12 hours, but much a more manageable labour, and everything happened very quickly at the end!

DC1- 38+3 arrived at 39 weeks, my waters broke 3 days before I was induced.
DC2-37 weeks
DC3- currently 38+1, contractions at night time and lost mucus plug on Friday!

DS1 I was induced at 40+4
DS2 I was 38 weeks when labour started 38+1 when he was born after 23 hours of labour 🙄 They are 16 months apart

DC1 - 39 weeks
DC2 - 35+4 weeks
DC3 39 weeks
