Hello.

I'm Natalie, I live in Denmark - I gave birth to my first child, a baby boy named William on June 26th.

My first son was 7lbs 2 oz and the second was 9lbs 15oz! I worked until my water broke (3 weeks early) with Jack and had 2 months of bed rest followed by induction with Isaac - who got stuck on his way out! Yikes! Crazy how it works sometimes :)

Er both of mine were pretty much identical - I bled at the same points in the first trimester, I suffered morning sickness (although worse with my second) for the same amount of time, I suffered spd and heartburn in both, my iron levels dropped at the exact same time, the pre-e started at the same point and I needed induction at 37 weeks with both. My labours were similar as well - I had two pessaries and waters broke on both, the second time I dealt with the pain better even though it was quicker.

The only real difference was the first was a boy the second was a girl...but I think I'm an oddity from what I've seen most people have different pregnancies and labours not virtual carbon copies.

both of my pregnancies and deliveries were completely diff as well! my first daughter was born oct 31, 08 (due oct 28) and was 7lb 11oz and 19 in long and this baby was born june 19 (due june 24) at 8 lb 6 oz and 21 in long. both labors and everything were diff... cant really think of anything, with either baby, that was similar, other than they both had a head full of black hair! lol

Hi

Just stumbled onto this group and thought I'd introduce myself.

I'm the Mama of two little boys - Jack, born May 14th, 2009 (was due June 3) and Isaac, born June 13, 2011 (due June 10). Two hugely different experiences! Did anyone else find that?

Anyway, I'm loving having two baby boys, and Isaac, so far, is a fabulous sleeper! Here's hoping it stays that way ;)

Hi, I live in Sydney Australia and my second is due is due on the 26th although will probably end up having a c-section so will probably be scheduled on the 20th. When I had my 20 week scan we were told it was a girl, but I had to go for another scan and have since been told it's a boy. So far looking at naming him James as my husband is very keen on the name. Can't wait for him to arrive!

Hello Ladies~ I'm due on the 2nd, with our second. Due to our location, we opted to find out the gender this time around. By location, I mean I am currently living in Germany with my husband (with the US Air Force) and son who is 4 1/2. Since all our family is so far away we wanted to find out what we were having to better prepare. We found out in December that we are having a boy! I LOVE German hospital (so far). They give ultrasounds as EVERY apointment and no physical exam unless you bring up a problem. The dr. explain that what better way of knowing how the baby is doing then checking - and the ultrasound machine sits in the room next to the exam room. The machine is paid for, so why not use it. :) Greeting to all of you from Germany.
