Question about the labour after a FAST labour

[BellyBelly]

Just a tip for your super fast labourers... if you are at home and you feel the labour is going too fast for you, get on your hands and knees to get the bub off your cervix and get to your midwife/doc... of course this would work in hospital too if you feel you cant cope with a fast labour.

1st 6hrs
2nd 2hrs but only 12mins of feeling like i was in labour
3rd 10mins OMG yes..... i got out of the shower feeling fine. Sat on the edge of the bed and told my DH not to leave me...he said why, i said i just didnt want to be alone.... BAM contraction one....called MW 10mins later called MW again to tell her baby had been born, cord had stopped pulsation and had been cut, placenta had been birthed! We looked at her phone when she got here and it was only 10mins between called. Super intense....
Ill let you know how number 4 goes....IF i go there LOL


Thats why we planned a homebirth...i didnt want to birth in a car or ambulance

Yikes Milly, 10min is fast! Do you reckon a lot of the groundwork was done by Braxton Hicks contractions then, did you have those? I think those made the difference this last labour.

Thanks everyone for sharing your experiences, please keep them coming. Hopefully it will be helpful in our family planning.
