Will I be in labour for ever?

Nearly 12 hours of contractions, can't talk through them and one has made me sick. But they are really erratic - between 2 and 7 minutes averaging about 4. Am I ever going to get anywhere? Sad

thank you both, she is worth it and the bit in the birth centre was oddly great except for the pushing which I loathed...

Ahh, see I can't remember the pushing. It's all a haze of g&a, my mum coaching me through it and Ex-P sobbing!!

It's totally worth it though - let the fun times now begin Grin
