I need some positive second baby birth stories because I am spiralling!
I was only 2 days late with my first and as majority of people say your 2nd baby might come earlier or your labour will be quicker and I am loosing all hope of this now thinking I’m getting closer to induction 😢

I had my first in Dec 23 and my second feb 26, my labour was quite lovely and fast
Induced, went from 0-4 cm with the process induction in 24 hours with pain of about 4/10, went in to active labour a
Went from 4 cm to delivery in like 2 hours
Pushed for all of 5 minutes and she was here

I had a lovely induction experience with my second baby (Jan 24)
No more painful than my first spontaneous labour, knew what to expect which helped, unmedicated, all happened smoothly and pretty quickly.

I had my first December 23 and my second June 25, his birth traumatised me and my second babies birth healed all of that. I started contracting with her at 7 am went and did nursery run etc with my son and it was fine then I got to the hospital about 3pm and I was 7cm dilated. My second flew out, I had no time for epidural or anything!! She came at 41+3 and I remember being like giving up all hope she was coming but she came and it was magical! I hope you get the same xx
