How long were your subsequent labours?

[Jjtwhite26]

So with my ds labour was 5hours
From start to finish, I'm intrigued as to whether my next labour will be shorter or longer😁

What was everyone's experiences like?

DD1 about 4 hours as was induced and had to get an EMCS.
DD2 started contractions at 9pm on Monday, was in established labour at 3am on Wednesday or so we are aware, may have been earlier. Gave birth 12.25 so 10 hours ish.

My first was 106 hours from first contraction to birth, back to back, but recorded established labour was 5 hours and from waters going 20 mins, 14 mins pushing. No. 2 due in November. Desperately hoping the early stages are a bit shorter this time!!!!

Dd1 24 hours active labour, dd2 4 hours active labour and dd3 3.45 hours active labour. Had a few hours of really mild contractions before each labour really kicked in.

Ds1 12 hours waters breaking to delivery
Ds2 I was induced waters broken at 1.30pm delivered at 7.30pm. Contractions started at 6.30pm. It was very quick!

DD1, 1hr 10min
DD2, 44mins
DS, 20 mins (woke up bearing down and had to pant to delay him being born till got to hospital)

Regarding how easy they were.

DD1 was 6lbs I only pushed for ten minutes but it was hard work and I burst loads of blood vessels in my face it was sorest possibly.

DD2, was 8lbs and she was by far the easiest.

DS, when I got to hospital and started pushing was really tough going as my waters were bulging and the mw wouldn't burst them so i had to push all 9lbs 9.5 oz past the bulging waters. It was loads of effort, but not as sore as my first.

1st labour 37 hours
2nd labour 10 hours
3rd labour (induced) 12 hours
