my sister had her babies at 37wks, 36wks, 38wks, and 39wks in that order. so it doesn't necessarily seem like the babies came earlier or later just based on order...
I went into labor at 36w6d with DD and had her at 37 weeks exactly. I am at 37w2d with this little one. Hoping he decides to make an early arrival too, but I am already past when I had my daughter. I'm a CPA, so everyone is teasing me that he's just waiting until after April 15th for me : )
If I make it through today, then in my experience NO I did not go earlier with #2. With DS, my water broke at 36 w 4 d, so we will see what DD decides to do. My dr. did say that I should prepare to deliver early again, but that it was totally possible to go 40 weeks.
I had DD at 36 weeks exactly. I am 37 weeks with this one, so clearly earlier is not happening for me (thank goodness, I want this one to cook to 38 weeks for sure)... preemie status in the hospital is not so fun.
Re: Do 2nd time moms earlier with #2?
