56 hour labour for my DD. This is from first twinge. She was back to back tho and so contractions were pretty intense and close together from offset. Was 16 hours of official active labour. Overall it was pretty hell and ended in forceps, episiotomy and 3rd degree tear after water broken manually and syntocin drip due to slow progress.
I have always wanted more than one child. But thought of childbirth and another long labour terrifies me.
Has anyone had very long latent phase for first and second been a lot speedier?
