1st Pregnancy or not

I had a terminated pregnancy when I was a teenager so technically this won't be considered my first pregnancy but I'm curious as to how this will effect my delivery. I know some ppl say  "oh with my first baby my delivery was somewhat easy" so I don't know to classify this as my second delivery or what. Either way it go I'm just hoping for a safe delivery don't know how the abortion effects things so if you ladies know any.insight comment plz

If by terminated you mean abortion...then this will be your first delivery. In medical terms however, it is your second pregnancy...but that will only show on your medical chart. Hope that helps!

It would be considered your first delivery. A friend of mine had an abortion when she was pregnant and ended up being in labor for over 24 hours. Her pregnancy was normal. I gad a medical "abortion" due to a miscarriage that my body didn't get rid of. Made my next pregnancy my 2nd pregnancy but my first delivery. I was in labor for about 12 hours. With my second actual delivery I was in labor for 4.
