anyone on their third or more baby?
i ask because this is my second, and my first labour was 11 hours-ish and the midwife was able to tell me that this labour (my second) would be around 6 hours (providing it goes as smoothly as last time).
how could she possibly know this? has anyone been told an estimate and it was quite accurate? its just that im hanging on to her words about it!!

im an exception to the rule,my 1st was a 24 hour labour,my 2nd was a 24 hour labour ending with an emergency c section and my 3rd was a 36 hour labour,im dreading the labour on this one lol x
my 1st was 24 hours but did manage to have vag delivery, 17yrs later I had 2nd and had a c-section. Generally if the gap is big you don't get the same benefits and Claudia I think the same is true with you as you had a section 1st time.
I'm now preg again but don't know what options I'll have.
This is my 3rd too!!! I have a son who is 15 in June, a son who is 7 in August and then this little boy who is due in June!
1st was emergency section, 2nd was elective section so this one is also gonna be elective section!
My gaps are soooooo big I am petrified I have forgotton what to do with one so weeeny!!! Im used to teenage attitudes and 2nd son answering back - forgotton about baby stuff! Sooooooo scared xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
i thought it got easier my 1st labour was 9 hours 2nd was 7 hours and the 3rd child was 3 hours lol im due the 18th sept so im nearly 4 months
anyway im looking about as im a newbie here good luck to all vonnie xxx
I'm on baby no5 now and in a country where home births are extremely popular - just as well with my track record huh!!!!!
I'm on my 3rd and last pg - DS1 took 21 hours and DS2 only took 2 and half yay~! Had epidural with DS1 didn't work down one side though and painful spasms - didn't have time for pain relief with DS2 - had tens though but couldn't feel it still on me at the end - hoping this one will be speedy too, fingers crossed and everyone! chelle
