Afterbirth pains

Hey y'all! I'm 36 weeks with my second baby and gathering my supplies for birth and postpartum. I just wanted to hear from other moms who had their second babies, how bad were afterbirth contractions? With my daughter, they were genuinely barely noticable. Like, wayyyy more mild than my mildest period cramps. But I've heard they get worse with each subsequent baby! I'm just wondering, to what degree? Like did you notice a major difference between baby #1 and baby #2?

Also, if you have used wishgardens afterease tincture or something similar, did you find that it actually helped? If it makes a big difference I might get it but also I'm on a budget and would rather not spend money on something that I either won't need or that doesn't work haha!
