23 hours exactly from 1st contraction to birth. They reckon it was so
long because thomas was breech.
Hopefully i'll not be going through that again this time

I was in labor for about 16 hours in the hospital and was already in slow labor for a day. That was still being induced or it would have been a century LOL.

1st, 5 hours
2nd, 2 hours
3rd, 20 minutes
4th, 1 hours (ish)
All were natural deliveries and times are from start to finish, though all but the 2nd were induced for various deliveries...I'll let you know how long this little gremlin takes as soon as I know, lol.

I was in slow labour for 2 weeks with dd1, then 36 hours of pain until I had an epidural, then they broke my waters and then I pushed for 2 1/2 hours. The cord was aorund her neck. So everytime I pushed her down she would spring back up again as if on a bungee!!
With dd2 I was in labour for 24 hours but once my waters broke it only took 51 mins. Only had time for Gas and Air! I went from 2 cms to 10 cms in 5 mins!
