2nd Pregnancy longer or shorter?

Hey Mamas, just wondering if your second pregnancies were shorter than your firsts? I went to 41 weeks with my first, currently 40+4 with my second and wondering what the chances are of him coming before 41 weeks.

Second baby

Our baby is 18 months and I just turned 34, I feel like we should start planning for baby number two but I don't feel ready either 😂 anyone else feel the same? Our baby hasn't ever slept well etc so it has been tough and I worry I won't cope going through it again! I don't really want to have a baby past 35 (just…

Suddenly at yesterday’s scan at 37+4, baby has turned itself head down! 🙌 Getting induced tomorrow and I honestly can’t wait! 🎉 This whole pregnancy has been an emotional rollercoaster but we are nearly there with an…

How are we feeling?

I’m 6w6d with my second! My symptoms started a lot earlier this time around. Nauseous both times but earlier this time. Boobs hurt but less than last time. Headaches both times.

Any advice to stay positive?

I’m 39 weeks today and feeling so low, I genuinely thought baby would be here by now… just always thought he’d be a little early! I’m feeling so deflated and impatient, I’ve had an increase in discharge, not sure if that’s my plug coming away slowly, soft bowel movements, random period cramps in the early hours, bra...

Announcing

If you had a first very traumatic pregnancy, did you openly announced your second pregnancy once you know all is good?? Or not until baby is born? Or babyshower?? I’m very conflicted. My first has a neural tube defect and I had a very open first pregnancy. I felt like I had to be the strongest ever and optimistic t...
