Water broke at 1am on Thursday morning and ds was born at the hospital at 10:23am on Saturday...56.5 hours...here's hoping to a quicker and gentle homebirth in May.
I started hard labor Wednesday the 16th at 4 pm. Water broke Friday morning at 2:30 am, had dd at 7:40 pm Friday night after like 10 minutes of pushing. I was at a birthing center with a CNM. 51.5 hours. Like Cutie Patootie, I'm hoping for a much quicker and more gentle birth next time.
my 1st ds was born at 3:42 am.
labor started 5:30ish am on friday, labored at home until 9:30pm and arrived at women and babies at 6cm, Jaden was born at 3:42 sat morning, a beautiful unmed experience
1st birth...hospital....deliverd at 2:30 pm...in labor for eight hours
2nd birth...birthing center...delivered at 9:35 pm...in labor for 3 1/2 hours
3rd birth...homebirth.....delivered at 12:01 am... from first contraction until delivery....35 minutes
All three were so different, at different times of the day. They were all such unique experiences.
Julia was born at 10:14 pm, but she was an emergency c-section. I was at 8 cm when she was born, so I would guess had she come naturally, it would only have been a couple hours at the most after that, so maybe just after midnight???? My labor started the previous day around 7 pm, and I labored for 27 hours, but she was entangled in scar tissue (from uterine surgery I'd had previously) and couldn't descend.
woke up around 330 am with real contractions. Had been having back prelabor for 4 or 5 days.
water broke at 3 pm or so.
ended up having to go c - section 11:22 pm.
