Does #1 coming early usually mean #2 will be early?

 I know there are exceptions, but does this generally happen?  Noah was 2 weeks early and I am already ready to start my count down to maternity leave.  LOL

    Not always,  K was 8 days early.  Audrey was born on her due date.  I was really hoping that Audrey would be early too so I would have more time.

    Not necessarily.  DD #1 was 4 weeks early.  DD #2 was 2 weeks early.  DD#3 was 4 weeks early.

    For me they came later each time except Michelle but thats because I had complications and had an emergency c-section.

    For my mom her 1st came 3 weeks early and the rest of us were at least a week late.

    Geez honey you are only 10 weeks & you are already counting down until maternity leave????? lol

    Well, in  my case, yes. However, that's b/c #2 will most likely arrive via c-section, too. That's considering cheating right? ;)

    However, it really depends. I'll use my mother's first two pregnancies as an example: I was two weeks late, but my brother was two weeks early. Not saying that the reverse will happen to you, but you never know.

    Not for me.  I was on bedrest for 10 weeks with Nathan (ds#1) and he came at 36 weeks and then for Brayden I was on bedrest for 8 weeks and got taken off at 36 weeks with everyone thinking I would go into labor immediately nope I had to be induced!  They induced me at 39 weeks. For both pregnancies BR was due to pre term labor.

    hi!!! how are you

    ds1 was exactly 2 weeks early. ds2    2.5 weeks early ,  a much smaller head so much better delivery and zero recovery. makes me want to convince dh to go for 3, hope the same is for you
