I had to push for an hour and a half..and that was b/c they gave me my epidural at 10cm dilated, so I couldn't feel contractions...plus they slowed WAY down....then they started me on Pitocin......Luckily due to the epidural, I couldn't feel ANYTHING when he came out!
thanks the labor was a lot easier than with my son with him i had to push for 2 1/2 hours and then delivered him by forceps and with her i didnt even push for 30 mins but her shoulder did get stuck.
congrats...so glad it went well and that you didn't have to be induced after all! I was 5cm by the time I went in too.....not bad..I'd rather be at home than in the hospital! Again, congrats on your new little bundle!
