First time mums? It's really rare though - of all my clients since 2005, not many have short labours, induced or not. The shortest two were natural births, one babe born before I got to hospital and one babe being pushed out when I got to hospital!
Yep! shocked me too, considering i'd been talking down inductions previously. I half wondered why i struggled through my own long yet spontaneous labour when i could possibly have had that experience... but as i said already it may be the right choice for some but not for me, the day/time, is not something i feel i should or want to control.
