Also thinking about will it be over due like my two girls were, and fast like them too...

4 hours and then 1 hour exact.

It's as of my body does the gearing up to labour for a small time, active labour then instant transition/birthing.

I think that's what I'm more anxious about is the timing.. And getting to MLU

After a few false starts and an afternoon of contractions which were 5 mins apart but increasing in pain. My waters went and out she popped 30 mins later. I too felt very out of control as that was 30 mins of excruciating pain and I was'nt even on delivery suite. Took everyone by surprise. Unless there's complications I wld def have homebirth for 3rd.

I was advised home birth but then because I did bleed bad two hours after having dd1 the midwives want me to try and get to hospital to MLU.

I just feel anxious how fast it could be or what the chances are of having a completely different labour and LONG this time?

BH's all the time and baby's pushing/grinding down movements can be very Uncomfy like it's literally trying to push out anywhere

calamity 1st- emergency c section due to placenta previa
2nd- 3 days on/off/on/off then 12 hours of exhausted hell
3rd- 1 hour from waters breaking in garden to hospital

This was after abandoning the car in a layby and jumping into an ambulance as I am nearly an hour from hospital too.

I swear to god, I actually held him in! His head kept firing down like a bullet trying to leave my body and I was panting short breaths on the gas and air in the ambulance and trying to drag the poor female paramedic to the floor. I was also pooing at the same time!!!

Good luck Grin

PS The most amazing and easy birth of all 3
