    Oh cool thanks Kate.

    So right side is bad isn't it? Isn't left preferable?

    Yep. And at the end of the day, posterior isn't "bad" either. Just probably a bit of a longer labour.

    Nice!

    My MW predicted a faster labour for me and I wasn't really buying it... so 3.5 hours surprised me

    How long was your first labour Meow? I know your pushing stage was shorter the second time round - how much by? I think I pushed for 45 minutes with DD2 - would like to shorten that a little.
