    Second pregnancy sucks lol. I loved being pregnant the first time around till the very end when I was super uncomfortable and over it. I’ve been over this pregnancy since 20 weeks and it just gets worse! 31 weeks tomorrow. I sure hope labour goes fast this time to make up for it!

    Had two weeks of sickness with my first daughter, no sickness with second pregnancy (boy), 34 weeks now and I feel like time has flown sooo quickly! Also less heartburn, more braxton hicks contractions, overall feels a bit easier! Hoping for a quicker labour as daughter took 48hours to get to 4cm and then second and third stages took another 12h! Pushed for 2 hours

    Thank you so much for this video!! Gave me lots more ease I thought I was going crazy feeling my baby move inside me at 12 weeks !!! Also I’m 19 weeks now and I feel huuuuuuge I’m tired all the time and I was worried feeling uncomfortable and kind of in pain meant something was wrong with the baby. I didn’t feel anything until the last month of pregnant for my last one. But sounds like other women defiantly have different symptoms with each pregnancy. I’m just looking forward to delivery- I only had to push for 10 minutes and baby popped right out ! Maybe this one will be a fast labor lol

    Second pregnancy currently 24 weeks. Less cramping more bloating. Felt fetal movement earlier, but I feel it less. Belly is a lot bigger this time. I've had bad migraines this time. Morning sickness was only nausea for me again. It was a little more intense, but lasted only a couple weeks. Body gets worn out a bit faster for me this time

    My first I had lots of anxiety because of googling in the past. Once kids were in the picture, I wanted to know everything about Pregnancy and birth and that was my big mistake. I actually developed tokophobia from it and even considered no kids even though I wanted them. I came across lot of scary stuff such as Amniotic fluid Embolism and other horrific events that can happen so I was terrified. That was biggest symptom so far in my first and now my second pregnancy(we got accidentally Pregnant but we eventually did want to try ) The fear increased cause I don't want to leave my daughter or husband even though I know it's rare thing to happen. I just keep thinking what if? it happens this time like that person I read about, this pregnany was an accidental it must mean I'll die. I don't have a job to get my maternity leave through the government it must mean I'm not meant to be in the world next year. Im afraid to be happy and positive like it will jinx me. These are all the thoughts that are in my head daily but rationalizing does help ....sometimes. I just wish I really knew how it was going to play out. My first birth was pretty smooth thank God for that! I needed pitocin just for the fact that my waters broke once I went into labor and I was strep b positive. Labor and delivery was 18 hours and 40 mins...I'm hoping it's true that second births go quicker and easier 🙏 I did go into labor spontaneously
    My other Pregnancy symptoms are similar to my first , mild nausea that's now tapering off now I'm close to second trimester, breast tenderness but the thing that is different this time around is the heart burn! It started super early. Im only 11 weeks with my second and it is brutal. My daughters pregnancy I had it later in pregnancy.

      I’m so sorry to hear that you’re having those fears. While they’re common, I’m sure they’re also difficult to navigate. If the fears don’t subside I’d recommend seeing a counselor who can support you through your fears. Hoping this second birth is a happy and healthy experience for you ♥️

    • @BaileyGaddisDoula
      @BaileyGaddisDoula  3 роки тому +1

      Wow! That is fast. Hopefully your care provider can work with you on ways to prevent tearing the second time around. I would advise doing as little pushing as possible (unless there’s a medical urgency to get the baby out) and allowing your contractions to slowly push the baby out.

      I totally understand how that can be concerning. A silver lining of feeling this way is that it will likely make you super aware of how she’s feeling when the new baby arrives, which will likely result in her feeling included and valued.
