I'm might be the bearer of bad news hehe.

1st was 3hrs from waters been broken, 40w3d 1 push. 7lb 6 oz. Head circum 34cm

2nd was 3.5, posterior birth. 30mins pushing. 35w3d. 7lb head circum 36cm

3rd 3hrs. 1.5hours of pushing, his head was in the wrong position. 39w6d, 9lb5oz, head circus 37cm. If his head was in the right position my labour would have been easy, my contractions were 4mins apart and I was 10cm dilated. My MW reckons that if he had been in the right position I would have had a 1hr long labour.

FX'd number four is in the right position, it's head isn't any bigger and I don't go past 9lb.

All your births are very similar lenghths dneyn. the big heads suck, DS had a big one so something a bit smaller would be better

Didn't add my third baby to my original post,poor overlooked third child ;-)

I was 3cms dilated at 9:41pm,the contractions were irregular and never gained the intensity or pain that her brother's did,and she was out and on my chest at 11:41pm,so ah yeah...pretty quick.
She was 2 weeks over due and not happy to be out,angriest looking newborn I've ever seen

DD1 - 14 hours from waters breaking, 1.5 hours pushing, LOA position, but cervical lip holding her up on the way out.

DD2 - 2 weeks of pre-labour in the evenings, 1cm dilated on the Thursday, born on Monday after 2.5 hours, of which I didn't think I was in labour for 1.5 of those! ROL position since 33 weeks, stubborn wee thing would NOT move! Perfectly fine for labour!

Ok so for those that are interested in how I went.

Waters broke at 1.05am, contractions started about 1.20am-ish and she was born at 2.16am!!! 1 hour 11 minute labour!

Good thing we wont be going back for a 3rd cos I reckon it would just fall out
