we are thinking of having another....advice please ladies.
well ive been wanting another for agges now so ive finally said to oh that i want to start trying and he hasnt been sure for ages but he said last night "ill think about it" if not we will start trying when Tegan is 1 (end of oct). so was just wanting to ask a few simple questions....
is labour easier and quicker second time round? as i quite enjoyed the long labour with Tegan, crazy i know but it gev me time to actually think, omg this baby is going to come out lol
And if we were going to have another we would want to buy the phil and teds sport...is it heavy and is it bulky when folded up? as we have a very small fiat punto.
any advice would be great x

My 1st labour lasted 11 1/2 hours but Amy was babck to back which would have accounted for it being longer but Zara was 3 1/2 hours start to finish though I put a lot of that down to her being in a better position. I did find my 2nd labour a lot easier, probably coz I had more of an idea what to expect too.
Good luck xx
the phil and ted sounds ideal, i dont wana get a pram that won't be much use once tegan is walking properly. do u know where have good deals on them as they are fairly expensive?
Tegan was back to back too so my labour started on the mon night and i had her on the wed night althought pains werent all that bad untill wed morn at 10 and lasted untill 8, so 10 hours in all i guess.
thanks for your reply Hilary x
im glad someone else has said they enjoyed labour, as i thought i might be a little bit crazy lol x
good luck with everything....

It might not take ages to conceive 2nd time round...only took me one time when we didn't take proper precautions!
My 2 girls are 12 months apart and I'm loving it all so far, though it can be hard work at times.
My 2nd birth was fab, didn't have any pain relief until I started pushing when I had gas and air- and Evie was out with about 5 or 6 pushes,took about 10 mins...took me nearly 2 hours to push Lily out!
Good luck!

i cant believe you have pushed your second babies out in like 10 mins!! x
it might not take you long to concieve.
Good luck trying.
dont know anything about second labours or prams tho, sorry
xxxx
Have fun trying!

Me and OH are currently on month 2 of ttc 2nd and DS is only nearly 21 weeks
I ended up having to have C Section but has not put me off having a 2nd - if anything I would elect for C Section next time round (only downside would be not being able to pick up DS for a bit after the op)
Fingers crossed you get a BFP soon

Good luck! Wish I could have a third!
stepheY and mady123 i hope you get your bfp's very soon!! oh is still undecided yet, i asked him earlia and my reply was "don't rush me we aren't buying a puppy" the cheeky bugger. i really hope he comes round, don't think i can wait untill oct before we start ttc, seems so long away although im sure it will fly by x
we have decided to finish decorating the dinning room and living room and then have another...so probably in the next 2-3 months. hopefully we wont be trying for agges!
thanks alot for all your replies x
my labour was just under 4 hours, had him at home with just gas and air for the pushing. would def have another home birth, but would like to try water next time! x
