I was induced with pitocin at 5:30am, they broke my water around 1pm I think, and she was born at 11:43pm. it was about 17-18 hours from the time I got to the hospital to the time she was born.

With my first, I was in labour about 24 hrs, but it was easy and bareable and didn`t feel like labour for about 12 hours. I was in active labour for 4.32 hours. With my second, it was 3 hours start to finish. The first contraction killed and I was on gas and air within an hour and a half, but begging from the third or forth contraction. Lol. Every person's labours are different, even those with more then 1 kid. You might take 2 days or 1 hour. What's certain is, you deliver a baby. Lol.

I was induced- went in on Wednesday night and had cervidal (made me have contractions but i`m not counting this time). They started pitocin thursday around 5am and I had my daughter on Friday night at 8:40pm.

I was induced, it took 12 hours once they started the pitocin. Not much happened til they broke my waters then it took 2 hours and she was out quick!

Water broke at 3am. First contraction started at 8am. Baby was out a little less than 4 hours after the first contraction. I was already 4cm dialated when my water broke but only 5cm with the first contraction :( It all went very quickly once the contractions started!

Ugh too long! First contraction Thursday about 6pm, and my son was born Saturday at nearly 7am!

First contraction at 10:00 pm; final push at 6:30 pm the next evening = 20.5 hours, no pain meds. All in all, totally bearable :)

  1. I`ve just opened up my facebook newsfeed this morning and there`s a whole bunch of photos of Saturday night antics. First there was one from my 19 year old cousin with her and her friends (looking thrashed out, dirty, bits hanging out of places they shouldn`t and just overall skanky), and another from a friend of mine who is 15 years older on a rare night out with her school friends (who are all mums) who looked gorgeous, fresh, clean, sexy yet classy (let the clothes rather than the skin do the talking - ie you don`t need your ass and boobs hanging out to show off a nice little figure) Is it just me, or are young girls looking thrashier than women in their 20s, 30s and 40s?
  2. Do you or someone you know raise their now school aged child with attachment parenting (baby wearing, never ever allow the baby to cry it out, cosleeping, baby let snacks and feedings, etc) 8f so, how does the school aged child/ren compare to their peers?
  3. You can only have three of the four when buying a house. Which do you sacrifice?
