My first was 30 minutes (induction) second was 20 minutes (unmediated)

I went from 5cm to 10cm in about half an hour. Then informed my team that baby was ready and I needed to push (no epidural so I could feel that it was time). The doctor was like ‘holdup lets check your cervix’ then proceeded to do the quickest cervical check and said YEP!! I pushed for 4 minutes and he came out screaming. This was my first so my only frame of reference

As soon as I got to 10cm my baby was out in 11 mins. She was my first. My second ended up in emergency CS at 5cm.

Don’t know exactly, but I was pushing for 26 minutes so guess 26 minutes. An hour prior to starting pushing I was only 3cm.

I went from 2cm to 10cm and baby coming within 2 hours, pushed for 20 minutes 😊

About 2.5 hours and then needed forceps with my first and about 15-20 mins with my second

First baby was 19 minutes of pushing and second was 9 minutes

Caption competition! Help!

Hey ladies,

I need your help please!

I’m making a Father’s Day card for my dad. I want to use this hilarious picture of him from when he took his grandson around soft play and it gave him a bit of a shock/heart attack.

I want to put a hilarious caption on it but I can’t think of one.

Hilarious suggestions please!

Having second throughs on our chosen name…

We’re having a girl and have planned on naming her Orla.
My sister is also due a baby girl 12 weeks before us and has just announced her baby will be called Eala (pronounced Ay-la). I’m now worried that the two girls names would be very similar and should I rethink our previous choice?

How do you pronounce these?

So I have two names that people have said are a bit hard to pronounce at first glance. So I'm asking, how would *you* pronounce "Owelia" and "Sylvana"?

Pregnancy 12 months post C-section

Does anyone have any experience getting pregnant 12 months after a c-section? My deliveries will be 20 months apart, but I am still nervous.

Hospital bag!?

Help a girl out. I’m starting to gather bits for my hospital bag. I’ve found a few check lists online but no one really says how many of each you need. Does anyone have a checklist with amounts on?
Like the one big thing are we taking the little ready to use milk and if so how many?
Also is there anything that you are glad you took or wish you had?
Anything that was a waste of time and didn’t make it out the bag?
