Default How long were you in labour?

Just curious to see how long everyone was in labour for. For myself, the first child was 30 minutes and my second was 15 minutes.

What were you?

Baby #1 - 48 hrs. before c-section
Baby #2 - Was supposed to be a scheduled c-section, but my water broke 5 days earlier than the scheduled date. I was experiencing contractions for an hour before they wheeled me into the OR.

30 and 15 minutes?! Oh my!

15 1/2 hours of hard labor with my son (no drugs and three pushes) then with the twins it was 12 but I had drugs and then an epideral so those hours felt like nothing.(one push for my first twin, they took the last twin via c-sec)

Default Re: How long were you in labour?

I think I should of been an little more clearer of what labour is. It's when you start pushing, that's labour. The rest the refer to as contractions and don't really, as far as I know have a term for it. So when I asked how long you were in labour for it's when you started pushing.
If your calculating from when your contractions started that's different.

Contractions are considered labor. You are referring to the second stage of labor, which is pushing.
http://www.babycenter.com/0_the-stages-of-labor_177.bc

I may not have pushed my babies out, but I certainly experienced labor with my DS. Forty-eight hours of contractions, pitocin, fully dilated .... They finally sent me to radiology, where they took x-rays and learned his head was stuck against my heart-shaped pelvis. My OB/GYN told me no baby would ever fit through.
