My son was 9lb1oz and i was pushing for soo long..not a fun experience....i've heard that usually the second one comes out faster! Is that true?

a good friend just delivered her second and from what she tells me, it was MUCH easier and much shorter even with a baby that was over a lb. bigger!

she also went 10 days earlier with #2.

Delivering DD #1 was the easiest....probably because I didn't know what to expect so i was calm and relaxed. DD#2 the labor was faster but pushing was more difficult. DD#3 was the most difficult....the doctor was not my normal OB so I was not comfortable with her examining me while in labor and I punched the nurse that was pressing down on my belly trying to help me push (hurt like hell). With DS#1 C-Section!!!!!! Lol

For me, #2 was WAY easier than #1.

#1, took castor oil, was in labor 29hrs, pushed for 3.5hrs, he was born at 9lbs11oz
#2, went into labor on my own at 4:30am, pushed for less than 15min (only took 5 pushes!) and he was born less than five hours after labor started.

Let's see what #3 does!

From what I hear, the second one is easier. I had a easy labor, but pushed for 2 hours. It was long and exhausting, and I felt the after affects of two hours of pushing for weeks.
My friend pushed for 1 1/2 hours with her first and it only took 3 pushes with her second.

DD #1 in labor for 6 hours then 3 hours of pushing
DD #2 in labor for maybe 3 hours, barely made it to the hospital and only 2 pushes (1 to brake the water, 1 she came out!!)

Yes!!!!!

I was induced with DS, pushed for 2 hours, labored for half a day.

With DD, I went into labor on my own, labored in the hospital for 4-5 hours, pushed twice and she was born.

I always say, #3 is going to just fall out.
