Is it common to have a second child earlier?

With the opening of the second child policy, many people are starting to prepare for having a second child. In our country, having many children means more blessings. At this time, many people will be concerned about whether the second child will be born in advance? After all, I had given birth to one before. Generally speaking, whether it is the first or second child, the birth of a child will only be when the time is right. So in principle, the second child will not be born in advance.

However, it cannot be ruled out that the delivery period may be advanced due to individual differences or factors such as emotional excitement. Of course, most women also said that giving birth to a second child might feel smoother than the first, and the labor process might be shorter than the first. However, not all women give birth to their second child faster than their first. It should be said that the mother's own physical condition, the development of the fetus, etc. will affect the delivery process.

It is generally recommended that if women plan to have a second child, it is best to do so before the age of 35, because women's fertility will decline after the age of 35 and the chance of fetal developmental abnormalities will greatly increase.

In addition, many mothers may use an IUD for contraception after giving birth to their first child. If they plan to have a second child, it is best to remove the IUD six months in advance. During this six months, you can choose condoms for contraception.

When to have a second child depends on the method of delivery of the first child. If it is a normal birth, it is best to wait one year after delivery before preparing for the second child. Generally speaking, if the interval between two pregnancies is less than 18 months or greater than 5 years, the chance of premature birth of the second child will increase relatively. Therefore, it is recommended that if you want to have a second child, it is best to set the time during this period.

Second child birth instructions

Regardless of whether it is the first or second child, the three signs of labor are the same: paroxysmal regular uterine contractions; a small amount of vaginal bleeding; and sometimes vaginal discharge, which is known as "premature rupture of membranes." However, the labor process of the second child may progress faster after entering labor, so if you find any signs of labor, you should go to the hospital in time.

If there are signs of labor, go to the hospital immediately. First of all, we need to look at the interval between the first and second births. If they are relatively close, especially within three years, we need to pay attention. In addition, it depends on the individual. If the conditions of the bony birth canal are relatively good, the conditions of the soft birth canal are also relatively ideal, the fetus is of appropriate size, and the physical condition is relatively good, the second birth may be smoother than the first, that is, the labor process will be shorter. In this way, when the second birth shows signs of labor, you must go to the hospital in time to avoid untimely treatment due to the short labor process, which will affect the fetus and adults.
