Ftm - labor was 2 hours, 20 minutes
My baby boy joined our family on 9/17, the day before his due date.
I woke up a little after 4:30am by a strong contraction. I woke up hubby and started timing them. He decided to take a shower abd get things ready - good thing because everything started to move so fast!
We left for the hospital around 5:40, and when we got there at 6:00 I was at 10cm.
They asked me to wait until my doctor arrived to push (riiiiggghhhttt). She arrived at 6:30 and calmly greeted me (I was yelling through contractions at this point) and told me to push with the next one. Baby arrived at 6:51am. 7#1OZ, perfect, healthy, and so beautiful.
With a 1st degree tear, doc decided not to do stitches and we spent the next 28 hours in the hospital recovering. Overall, I couldn't ask for a better birth!
