Question for moms w/ multiple pregnancies. My first came as a preemie and she was only about 1.5 lbs when born. Contractions started at 3, water broke at 3:40 and baby was born by 4:30, so very quick. Second baby is looking to be full term so I’m trying to anticipate what this labor will be like. My dr has said that it will likely be quick, but curious as to whether contractions second time around felt more intense, similar, or easier. Did you feel like things went more smoothly 2nd time around
