My first labour was induced at 37 1/2wks due to leaking hind waters. 23 hr labour. DD was so not ready to come! I had a horrible long labour with her.
My second was totally natural onset and labour. Pre labour for a few weeks. DS was born an hour after I got to hospital. I don't actually know how long labour was cause I didn't really think it was it! But my second experience was sooooo much nicer, I actually 'enjoyed' labour (as much as one can!) and it makes me think I could do it all again if every labour is like that!
