Were you more worried with your third?

Not sure where to post this. Just wondering if it's common to be more worried with a third pregnancy/birth/child than your first or second?

No, I wasn't.

Apart from anything else, you don't have time to sit around thinking about things like you do with your first.

Not pregnancy but the child, yes actually, much more neurotic with my third!

Whats the age difference? That matters
I do know I was told about the tricky third delivery by every midwife, I ignored it and he was my easiest

I was nervous with the first, absolutely fine with the second, unbelievably terrified with the third (pregnancy and birth). I think mainly because I'd had a couple of losses in between DC2 & 3, plus DC2s birth was significantly more painful than DC1 and I was never able to figure out why.

You can do it though! DC3 is an absolute joy 😊Totally worth it.

I was because I was a lot older than when I had my 1st twi but everything was perfect, apart from the fact that he's going through the terrible twos now 😫

Yes me!! I have no idea why but I feel so anxious this time. I’m only 6+2 but I’m terrified something is going to happen. I don’t know why I feel like this as I wasn’t like this with previous pregnancies x

Yes me .. I wanted a third but I worried about my age as I was pushing late 30s . I worried about DS or Autism. I felt I'd been lucky to have two children without needing any additional support for any needs . I would of loved another but my anxiety just wouldn't let me .
