Better.

notnowbernard · 15/12/2008 13:08

2nd slept (much) better than 1st for the first 3m

Then it all went tits up and she was a nightmare until about 8-9m

1st was pretty crap from 2-4m but was great after that

notnowbernard · 15/12/2008 13:08

Oops, that wasn't "quick", was it?

inSanityClause · 15/12/2008 13:13

worse, oh yes indeeedy.

worse much worse

neolara · 15/12/2008 13:21

Both were awful but in different ways.

IdrisTheDragon · 15/12/2008 13:22

Worse (lulled me into a false sense of security to start with though...)

KnickKnackNaNollaig · 15/12/2008 13:28

2nd much better from the very 1st minute!

scorpio1 · 15/12/2008 13:29

better

Bink · 15/12/2008 13:32

better, but I'm really sure had nothing to do with birth order - no.2 is just a cosy soul throughout, in every way

Cadmum · 15/12/2008 13:32

Much worse...

Don't even get me started about DB#4 who has yet to sleep through one single night at nearly 3 though...

Much worse

pgwithnumber3 · 15/12/2008 13:37

Similar, both woke for night feeds whilst BF but as soon as were weaned, they slept 12/13 hours a night without waking. Here's hoping DD3 is as good...

Ninkynorkstuckinthexmastree · 15/12/2008 13:48

DD was bad but DS is even worse. I'm too chicken to have a DC3

wrinklytum · 15/12/2008 13:50

Worse.Much,much worse.In fact she was a blardy nightmare.

slim22 · 15/12/2008 13:51

much worse

ChristmasDisco · 15/12/2008 13:53

2nd better than 1st whilst in cot, but since she went into a bed (2 yrs ago) she wakes a touch too early for my liking.

littletownofmeglethem · 15/12/2008 13:54

worse

DS was ff and on GF routine, slept 12 hours a night from 12 weeks.

DD is bf and wakes up once or twice at 14 weeks. zzzzzzzzzzzzz...... Roll on weaning and cc I say.

itcameuponamidnightexpress · 15/12/2008 13:55

Much much worse for much much longer, but now at nearly two sleeping pretty well.

deckthegirlandboywithholly · 15/12/2008 13:56

Much much much much much much

WORSE
