My midwife has said to me a couple of times now that third babies often differ from the previous two in labour pattern. Has anyone else experienced that? I know each baby can be different, and it depends on how he/she is sitting, etc, but I was unaware of a general "trend" of a longer/different labour with a third baby. (I am hoping not! My first two were relatively easy - 7 hours from first contraction to delivery.) What is your experience?
