First child was 33 hours from first twinge to emcs at 10cm.

Second child was vbac - 5 hours from first twinge to birth.

What were the lengths of your labours if you've had 3 (or more!).

1st (dd 2005) 24hrs from first twinge
2nd (ds1 2010) 14hrs from first twinge
3rd (Ds2 3weeks ago) 4.30am twinges, 11.25 at hospital born 13.11. Was a week late and 2 sweeps. Labour length on noted 1hr 27, 11 mins of pushing.

3rds are wild cards and especially with the gaps that I've got, they said it could be like my first again!

@GoT1904 Dc4 was my longest labour at under 3 hours start to finish, was my loveliest one too.

I'm hoping it's not too fast! I will likely be induced unless baby comes before 38/39 weeks, which I doubt. I'm oddly looking forwards to it. X

40 minutes ish from first twinge to baby out.

She is still in a hurry to get places. 😂
