Labour length

Jacinta

Hi ladies. I am pregnant with baby #3 and am scared how this labour will go. My 1st was a perfect birth... only 6 hours beginning to end and no pain relief at all.

Everyone told me my 2nd would be quicker but it was the opposite! 12 hours, much harder labour, they had to break my waters and I used gas and air. I am scared my 3rd will be even worse! Anyone have experience with their 2nd labour beibg longer than the 1st but the 3rd being quicker than the 1st? I know you never know how its going to go but just want to hear your stories :) x
