with my first i was in lobour for 6 hours. he was born on new years day so no one can ever forget his birthday. I also have twins, but did not labour with them, had a planned section. ,usually labours get quicker each time, especially the 2nd stage or pushing phase.

with my first child I was in labor for 1 week...with my second I was in labor for about 2 hours and the last two were scheduled c sections. All my kids ended up being c sections but my first one wasnt until they realized my pelvic bones were too small The 2nd child I went in to labor before I was due but it was also a c section.
