I was in active labor for 11.5 hours and pushed for 45minutes. This was my first child so I know it could have been worse but I was hoping it would be shorter. She luckily was 5 days early though. No matter what it was all worth it.

With my first, I went from closed and thick to delivered in just under 6 hours. My second, I was induced at 2 and thick and delivered in 4. Both times, I went from 4 centimeters to delivered in less than 30 minutes.

For our first child, my wife was in labor for only 5 hours. No kidding people! She also refused pain killers.
