Hard pregnancy easy labour easy pregnnacy hard labour

DD#1 - shocking pregnancy. MS 24/7 for 9 months, migraines etc. Induction at 4 days o/d that took 35 hours for the whole process but basically a very good labour.

DD#2 - repeat awful pregnancy for entire 9 months. Easiest birth in the world - no pain relief whatsoever, 2nd stage 15 minutes and went home 10 hours after her birth.

And to take it a step further, cr*p pregnancy and DD#1 is the easiest, happiest child and DD#2 seems to be following suit.

Mmmm I had a pretty good pg with Izzy with normal amounts of m/s - HUGE feet and fluid retention but really in the whole scheme of things I would say it was an easy pregnancy and I was induced had a 36 hour labour, and ended in an emergency c/s! As Lulu said though - horrid birth that it was, my Isabelle has been the easiest, most contented happy baby! I hope her brother follows in her footsteps regardless of the labour (and VBAC please )

Hi Kel
DD#1 - Easy pregnancy and 2 hour trouble free labour
#2 - More M/s than #1 but still a hassle free pregnancy... and as for the labour we will see

With DS1:
i had the absolute WORST pg, i was throwing up with morning sickness the day i went into labour. I has major back, muscle and joing pain needing phisyo through the week just so i could walk properly.
my labour was also CRAP, 26 hours before an emergancy c/sect. 15 hours of which was 2-3 mins apart but only 5cm dialated. so i guess you can say Hard pregnancy and Hard labour.

TWINS Due Soon:
so far my PG hasn't been as bad as with DS1 but still i would consider it hard. my labour is going to non existant i'm happy to be having another c/sect. god bless my Ob and modern medicine. my last recovery was awsome and i hope to have the same this time. so this time i'll say a Hard Pregnancy and I'll ??? the labour for now.

#1 pregnancy was hard, bad m/s, just felt crappy the whole way through and had pre-eclampsia at the end. Labour was induced, horrible and traumatic but only 5 hours.

#2 pregnancy was a breeze, just the normal aches and pains. Labour last 37hours spontanious but was by far easier than #1 and i felt great afterwards unlikel with #1 i felt like i had been run over 10 times.

DS good pregnancy with ms but not too bad and good labour. Unestablished labour 11.5hrs but not bad just slept with heat pack on my back and established labour 8 hrs with no pain relief...all in all pretty proud of myself and my boy he came out perfect.

Not me! Each pregnancy and labour (up to #3) got harder ... except this pg has been easier than #2 and #3, but not as easy as #1 (so hopefully I'm in for a good labour this time too!!)

wow there's been a real mixture I soooooo envy you girls that had easy preg easy labour oh if only my body liked me that much haha .
For those that had hard births I think it's amazing how your bodies and minds can recover from such trumatic births and you put it all behind you and do it again ladies
