8 hours - I was induced cause I was 10 cays overdue. I had the epidural.
all in all is was a lovely experience because i was in control and I don't think the epidural took full effect because i could feel everything and move as well.

My first daughter was really quick labour, from arriving at the hospital it was 20-30 minutes!!!!!!!
My second daughter was a little worse, waters broke on the Sunday evening, went to hospital toget checked out but nothing at all was happening. They made me stay in hospital though because my first birth was sooo fast. Finally had 2nd daughter on Tuesday.
