Wtt for baby number 2 - Page 2

xLisax · Feb 1st, 2010, 09:12 AM

I had the same kind of experience with my hospital, they were crap with there aftercare, especially as we had complications and Max was taken straight to SCBU..awful, Im crapping myself that birth will be the same again!!

And yeah Vicks you're right..knowing the pain etc will make it weird, I dont know about any of you but the pain is quite hazey (sp?) to me, I know it hurt like hell but Max kinda takes the thought away from that!

Max was 10lb so moomin_troll that definitely bothers me too

is your second baby supposed to be bigger?

And thats a great idea about the new baby buying a present.. may have to pinch that one

I still remember the pain hahaha every little detail but maybe thats my fault and i havent let myself forget hahaha

yeah second is supposed to be bigger but doesnt happen to everyone.

zane was 8lb3 59cm and i thought that was big enough haha i was cut and stitched

but a mate of mine her lo was 9lbs n shes didnt even tear lol

i actualy said while in labour and pushing "this isnt as bad as i thought" i handled the pain so well so hoping i wont be induced so id be able to handle it again (fingers crossed lol)

Haha, the thought of it is all so scary but talking about it does make me kinda excited go through labour and birth again...

Am I nuts?

Do you reckon youd find out the sex next time round? Did you with Zane? Max was a surprise baby and Im thinking Id wanna know next time, be more prepared and all!

i hate suprises hahaha so i had to find out with zane and i will next time.

i think the best suprise for me is just seeing what they look like so knowing the sex didnt ruin anything for me, i was able to get more excited about names i wanted.

it is scary, im not looking forward to birth but ive learnt from my mistakes so im lookin forward to doing things differently with lo number 2, after i had zane i was too hung up on the crappy hospital and being sh*t scared to enjoy him and really the newborn stage is the best part.

I am! Might be waiting a long time.. maybe end of 2012 or beginning of 2013. We're getting married in 2012, so want to wait until after that really. And I'll have done a big chunk of my degree by then, so could take a break for baby or see how I'd go with baby + degree. Although OH has said that he wouldn't mind if I fell pregnant now, it will potentially be a better situation for it to happen later on.

I totally agree, looking back I soo wish Id enjoyed Max more as a tiny baby..but you are so scared and nervous that it kinda whizzes by in a blur! Thats a big plus for baby number 2...experience!

yeah it makes me sad that i didnt enjoy zane more and next time ile get to enjoy lo more with zane so that will be fun i hope haha!

also me and zane didnt get along when it came to bf so ile be giving that another go.

xLisax · Feb 1st, 2010, 09:45 AM

Yeah thats something I want to do too, Max was in hospital for 4 weeks after birth and I was gutted I couldnt properly BF, had to express, but when the time came to switch to breast he just didnt like it!

I think having a 3 year old (roughly) and a baby is a nice gap..they are old enough to sort of understand and can be more involved! I cant wait to see Max as a big brother to a little brother/sister!
