i was in labour for 2hrs 39mins with adam, i used gas and air, and loved every second, the mw was shocked cos she didnt think he'd arrive that quick, they had to pop my waters as he was on his way with them still intact

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.
