2nd pregnancy after Prem 1st, stories please

[PremieMummy]

So I'm currently 29 weeks with my 2nd baby, 1st came at 32 weeks unexpectedly with no underlying reason.
I'm just wanted some stories from those of you who have had previous prem babies (by prem I mean actual prem, pre 37 weeks), and how your consecutive pregnancies have been. All stories not just after the good.

Hello, my first baby came at 34 weeks, well i went into labour at 33 weeks. But they delayed it for a few days.

2nd pregnancy i was induced at 39 weeks.

Hi, 1st baby was born at 33 weeks, with my 2nd waters broke at 36+4, baby born 2 days later so technically prem but barely!!!

Thanks both @cookielove @pickledprincess
Did either of you have to have a progesterone pessary?

I had my first at 32 weeks after an awful pregnancy; several things occurred that put me at high risk for my next pregnancy. However second pregnancy was text book straight forward; none of the conditions reoccurred and DS came at 39 weeks via elective c section. It just shows that every pregnancy can be different; i won’t be pushing my luck again though

Hi, no I didn’t

@PremieMummy i did have progesterone, i had several losses between my children and was being seen at the recurrent miscarriage clinic who prescribed it. I however didn't start till 7 weeks so who knows if it helped 🤷‍♂️

1st at 31 weeks.
2nd at 36 weeks.

I've been put on a progesterone pessary to try and strengthen my cervix incase that was the issue last time. I'll be 30 weeks on Friday and I'll just feel better after Xmas eve as that's 32 weeks which is when DD came!

1st was born at 28+1 ( had a very rough nicu journey as didn't have time for steroids or full dose of mag)
2nd 39+1 with help from a cervical stitch and progesterone and sofa suffering for most of the pregnancy
