3rd Baby

Hi all! Am currently expecting my 3rd child and wondering whether it's true that subsequent babies tend to come out earlier than the first. It us quite true for my 2nd born, who came out at 37 weeks so I'm afraid that this baby will come out even earlier (as that would make him preterm)! Can anyone share their experience? Thanks!

How was your little angel when she/he was born during 36 weeks ? Did she stay in the nicu ?

I can't tell for sure but I believe it varies with pregnancies.

Yes usually babies come out earlier the 2nd n 3rd time ...

I heard it does get easier for subsequent pregnancies!

I heard this is inconsistent for different people
