    DD1 waters broke around 4am. Mild contrctions, Synto started at 10am, Synto stopped at 2pm, due to no progression. Then things started to happen and DD1 was born at 5:34pm so was classed at a 3.5 hour labour.

    DD2 first contraction at 4am and 22.5 hours later she was born.

    DD1 labour was good but DD2 was a great labour, even if it was longer.

    Ds1 3.5 hrs
    Ds2 10.5 hours

    I was told not to stay home at all and dh was even told to read up on delivery! So that made the 10 hrs seem REALLY long!

    my three labours where all spontaneous. First one from first contraction to baby 1hr 50minutes second baby from first contraction 50minutes third baby six year gap just under two hours from first contraction. If it is spontaneous it should be as quick if not quicker than your first.
