First labour 8 hrs -start to finish
Second-26 hrs,same weight baby,but went back to back in labour
Had cervical lip issues both times which slowed things down and also waters that didn't want to break

Much easier. 1st was 13hrs, 2nd was 6hrs and my 3rd was 6minutes 😂

It was my blissful wonder birth. Had him at home, spontaneous labour at 41+3, never got overwhelmed, pain manageable throughout, total labour just over 2.5 hours- second stage was just 4 minutes, three pushes. He was born in the caul, waters and bag broke around him as I delivered his body, he was latched on feeding less than 2 minutes after birth, I even had a wonderful recovery and within a couple of days honestly did not feel like I had had a baby at all.

(First birth and third births were also around 2.5 hours but quite different, all were past EDD).
