Answer 12

3 days!!!!! Honestly I went into labour on the 23rd of may and I gave birth on the 26th. In saying that though it was a very slow labour. It wasnt like I was in hard labour for the full 3 days. When it began I started getting contractions every 7 minutes but they only felt like bad period pains. On day two I was starting to really doubt that I was in labour because it had gone for so long and wasnt progressing so I had a visit with my midwife and she did an internal. I was 5cms dialated so was definatly in labour. Labour got hard that night and I gave birth the following day!. I had gas, pethidine and in the end an epidural. I really regret my desision to have so much pain relief as I really wanted to try a natural water birth. But hey things dont always go according to the birthing plan. I definatly didnt plan to be in labour so long! I was two nights sleep deprived and ready to run into a wall to put myself out of my misery. Seriously I considered doing that! but in the end I gave birth to a beutiful healthy baby girl. She was worth every second of it! and I would do it a thousand times over if I had to.

Answer 13

5 hours. Had waters broken so went straight into hard labour - was determined not to have drugs - about halfway through I gave in, declared myself a wuss and had the gas & air..and then a shot of pethidine.  

Answer 14

i was induced on the 22 jan 08 at 7.30 am which was when they put the drip on,  at 7.35 am i started getting contractions and at 7.55 pm 11lb samantha was born i had the gas ,pethadene and last but not least the epidural and she is my first

so thats a 12 hrs and 20 mins and the first thing i did was fall asleep i was out of it

Answer 15

34.5 hours of hard labor

Answer 16

Deep sea---------- You are an idiot

And half an hour of that was me running around like a headless chook trying to figure out whether my water had broken lol it took half an hour for contractions to start lol

Oh and i had no drugs what so ever lol

Answer 17

6 hrs with my first (induced)

4hrs with my second (drug free)
