First pregnancy when did you give birth?

[Nainer123]

I was just wondering with your first pregnancy how long before or after edd did your little bubbas come? And how long was your labour.

1st 37 weeks. 27 hours after waters broke.
2nd 35 weeks. 8 hours after show.
3rd 39+4. 6 hours after show.
4th 38+4. 9 days of latent labour. 1 hour after starting synto drip as my waters had gone but labour had stalled.

5th. I'm 37+1 & I'm on day 20 of latent labour. Had a show 2 weeks ago on Monday (35+3) My waters broke last Wednesday (at 35+5) but appear to have resealed as fluid levels are back up to near normal from low. So I'm just here, contracting painfully for hours on end, every day

Induced at edd +10 with both dc they won't let you go any longer

6 days late, and 7 hours.

Thanks Nainer, honestly I think the brave people are women who give birth in hospital and manage to resist having ALL THE INTERVENTIONS RIGHT NOW - if I'd been in hospital then halfway through I would have been begging for an epidural, a caesarian, anything in fact at that point the only thing that stopped me asking to be taken in was that it would have meant having contractions in an ambulance... If you hit a point like that you just get through the next half hour, and then the next one...

Hope everything goes well and you get to meet your darling soon - trust me once things get properly under way you'll be asking yourself why on earth you were impatient for this...
