labored for 8 hours and pushed him out i. two pushes

labored for about 9 hours and pushed for 8 minutes

5 hours start to finish, pushed for roughly 5 minutes

I have precipitous labours but started feeling things happened around 6:40pm, he was born at 8:19pm same day. He came within 15mins of arriving at hospital

Wow these are quick! My first was start to finish 8 hrs they day 3 mm subsequent births are roughly 50% quicker again so I’m looking at 4hrs! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Induced at 39 weeks 2 days and the induction/early labor lasted 12 hours then pushed the baby out in 5 minutes

My first was six hours, via induction and my second was two hours

First - labored 12hrs pushed 20min
Second - labored 6hrs pushed 2 times

From first contraction to pushing him out it took just over 1hr 30mins but I have precipitous labours and basically as soon as I get my first contraction I have to head to the hospital ASAP 😂 I was 2hrs 5mins with my first and I’m currently almost 36 weeks pregnant with my 3rd, wanted a home birth to avoid the potential of giving birth in the car but because I’m GBS positive they won’t allow it. We also don’t drive and the only person who lives near enough to drive us is currently without a suitable car as their car just broke down so looks like I’ll just be ringing an ambulance and hope they arrive in time to transfer me to hospital 😅

My entire labour and delivery for my second was 54 minutes- from waters breaking to pushing 😅. Was certainly easier second time around!!
