My mum told me an old wives tale the other day and wondered if we could see what we thought?

Apparently if you have an 'easy' pregnancy then you have a 'difficult' baby......

For us that was totally the case!i had no ms, no cravings all very 'boring' in fact the only reason I would ever know I was pregnant was because I got a bump lol and J was a very troublesome little monkey when born..... Lol!

How do you fit with tjis? Xx
 
I had a very easy pregnancy, easy labour.... And a difficult baby!!

Old wives tale suits us lol x
 
I had horrid pregnancy, relatively straight forward birth n 'textbook' baby.

My BF had a breeze of a PG, horrid birth n a dream baby - so dunno abt the tale there squeak x
 
Easy pregnancy, long not moving labour, easy baby (who doesn't sleep lol)


 
Rubbish - I got told this soooo many times, I had a really easy pregnancy - firstly was told this meant I'd have a difficult labour - it was 3hrs!!

G is a very portable baby, goes happily with anyone, has never really woken more than twice during the night.

I keep joking maybe we should just have one and quit while we're ahead. I def got easy pregnancy, easy birth and easy baby!!

Xxx


On my iPhone - so cant see tickers :(
 
What counts as a 'difficult' pregnancy? I had morning sickness for the first three months and last three months, hated being pregnant, had an easy natural birth and DS was a great 'easy' baby though he didn't sleep through until he was 12 months old xx
 
Easy pregnancy, difficult baby until she was three months old.
 
Easy pregnancy, hard labour, very easy baby
 
i didnt like being preg much, ms and bleeds and pelvic pain after 28 weeks but i dont consider it a difficult one really, labour was long and annoying but no complications and nothing scary really and baby is happy and smiley and slept a bit too well from day 1 so id say easy preg easy birth easy baby for me really
 
Difficult pregnancy (bleeding,sickness, arthritis flareups, spd etc), difficult birth (emergency csec) and difficult baby (cloic and silent reflux). lol
 
I had relatively easy pregnancies, bar spd, long labour with K, whirlwind labour with E! Both were good as babies! I should hav known from Es labour how she would turn out tho :lol:
 
I'm only a few weeks into mine, so can't comment on that, but poor BF had a hell of a pregnancy, constant sickness, complications and was told she had a 97% chance of loosing the baby :shock: Horrific 3/4 day labour (from waters breaking) lost loads of blood and nearly ended up with a transfusion.

Luckily for her she has a delightful lil girl who is happy and a pleasure to be around- she deserves it!
 
Relatively easy pg apart from ms and the one occasion we thought wed lost him, horror of a baby.


Another one is if you have a difficult baby you get an easy toddler...we shall see x
 
Until 34 weeks or so my pregnancy was a breeze, after that I had loads of pain but mainly due to existing problems. My little man is a really good baby, started sleeping through the night at about 7 weeks I think, he rarely cries and loves going shopping lol.

So that OWT doesn't count with us xxxxxxx
 
I had an easy pregnancy and easy birth and txt book baby. :) he is more difficult now he is older! Lol this pregnancy is hard! But I think it's cos I'm older!
 
Relatively easy pregnancy and very easy baby for me.x
