Heck no!
I was expecting mine to go for longer, and be far more painful than it was. Don't get me wrong, it was and it was a shock!! I don't know what I was expecting, but I sure wasn't expecting that! Each time I looked at the clock, more time had passed than I realised, possibly due to napping between contractions. I was expecting to squeeze DH's hand and break his fingers/ swear like a trooper and say "you did this to me, don't touch me!" but I was somehow pleasant and kept appologising to the midwife! Looking back now, I'm gonna try a bit harder to do it without pain relief!
