How long did your stop/start labour last before the 'real thing' started?

So I have been having back ache, period type pains and intense BH on and off for the past week and am starting to get a little fed up of it tbh!

I know it's a positive thing as it is my body getting ready and hopefully preparing for a quicker and easier 2nd labour but I just don't know if I'm coming or going. Poor DH leaves for work everyday wondering if today will be the day and then nothing progresses!

So...if you had a similar start to labour, how long did yours go on for?

My stop start labour went on for 6 weeks. When labour started properly it took an hour. This was dc3.
