Second births before the first
Our grandmothers are sure that the second child will certainly be born earlier than the first, and prepare their daughters for the fact that they will give birth at 38-39 weeks. But this is actually a myth!The timing of a child's birth is influenced by many factors, among which the number of pregnancies is far from the first place.
Second births are faster than the first
What woman wouldn't want to give birth faster, right?
Fortunately, this statement is true and the duration of the second birth is indeed reduced from 10-12 hours to 6-8 hours (on average).
The duration depends on how much time has passed since the first birth.
Second births are easier than the first
Note that the process of childbirth is unique, so there is no need to talk about any principles or rules.Doctors note that the second birth can be easier for the mother morally and emotionally, she already knows how to breathe, how to push, and what happens to her body at all stages of childbirth.
