I went from 4 cm to 9 cm in an hour with Jayden. My labor was only 7 hours long so I'm hoping if and when I am ready to have my 2nd baby, it will go even quicker.
I was fast with all my labors. Each one was faster than the last. My third child was nearly born in the car, no kidding. He was born 6 minutes after we got to the hospital. I'd be scared to death to have another one!
We should have a poll ...My second was the same as the first ...and the third was the worst since I was "induced" .. not fun.....
Peek your wisdom and guidance just delights me. :) I am just tickled that mine was the first question. I will walk with my head held high and my big pregnancy gut shoved out.
Love ya babe!

OOOOOHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The FIRST QUESTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*rubs hands with egocentric delight*
Lets see.
Usually, labor does go more quickly the second time around, but not always. Going from 5 to 10 in 45 minutes can't really be topped very easily!
My first labor was 6 hours, the second was about 12, so I've always been a rule-breaker, even cervically.
So....usually yes, it does go more quickly. But of course, its not guaranteed.
