I don’t know why but I suddenly got curious about how long other people were in labor with their first babies, and how long they pushed for. I did some searching online and found out that the average FTM pushed for 1-2 hours and labor could be anywhere from 8-18 hours! Obviously each pregnancy gets shorter and easier, usually at least.

How long were your labors and how long did you push?

My 1st labor was 9 hours and I pushed through 3 contractions, so maybe 6 minutes?

My 2nd labor was 5 hours and I pushed through 2 contractions, so maybe 4 minutes?

What was your guys’??
