How long did everyones labours last from first contractions to baby?

Question

Well.. my son was a week early weighing in at 7lb 2oz

Answer 1

I started having contractions at 1:30 am on Monday morning and got admitted to the hospital around 2:00 pm that same day, and was in labor a total of 21 hours! My son wasn't born until 5:30 am on tuesday morning!! It was all worth it though and I'm doing it again in December! :)

Answer 2

A little under 10 hours. 7:30am contractions, 5:25pm birth. First pregnancy and labour.

Answer 3

4:00 am first contractions baby 7:50 pm for a grand total of almost 16 hrs of labor

Answer 4

48 hours of labor with contractions 3 minutes apart! 2 hours of pushing!

he was turned sunny side up which caused labor to drag on.

He was 11 days early and weighed 8lbs 3oz!

Answer 5

my friends labour lasted 8 hours and that was her 1st pregnancy. they said it starts when your contraction start. congrats

Answer 6

I was induced.  Contractions started after they broke my water (shortly after 9 AM) and the baby was born at 4:15.  I had the epidural, which makes it go slower but was worth it.  Good luck with your little one!  :)

Answer 9

My 1st was about 13 hrs. Got to hospital at 1:15 am. Born at 2:37 pm

Answer 10

my 1st lasted 14 and a half hours, he was a week late and weighed 6lbs 6oz.

My 2nd lasted about 3hours, and i progressed so quick the epidural didnt have time to work! She was 10days late and weighed 7lbs 9oz.

My 3rd, i was induced 14days late. My labour lasted 1hour from 1st contraction to baby coming. I pushed for 3 mins! I was having the epidural put in when i felt baby coming. I didnt have any other pain relief. It was so worth it though! I had a baby girl that weighed 7lbs 9oz.

I would do it all over again, but i think 3 is enough!

Answer 11

my first was 12hrs of labour, 1hr of pushing.

anxious to go into labour with this one.

Answer 12

12 hrs on the dot for baby #1. Just under 12 hrs for baby #2.

Answer 13

Started christmas eve around 3pm stopped by christmas day, then came back boxing day i gave birth eventually on the 29th dec at 5:14pm!! I have NO pain relief either as the hospital wouldn't let me.

WORST WEEK OF MY LIFE!

Answer 14

Think i was in labour around 16 hours...

First contraction was about 9.30am... finally had a baby girl the following morning at 1.34am.

This was also my 1st pregnancy.

It was all worth it as she was 13 days over due!!

Really worried about labour number 2 as there was complications with the 1st and had to be taken down for a emergency c section!
