[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Second was the fastest and easiest. I was expecting the third to be similar, but it took longer. Still shorter labor/faster delivery than with my first. [/quote] Exactly! My OB said the third labor was a crap shoot. There is no rhyme or reason. First baby was 36 hours with an induction. Second baby was 6ish hours of active labor and 2 pushes. Third baby was 15 hours of labor and 3 pushes. I really thought the third baby would come quicker and was very unpleasantly surprised when it took so long![/quote] This is what my OB said too — 3rd is a wild card. All three of mine were induced and around the same size (nearly 9 pounds). First baby was a 9 hour induction and about 20 mins of pushing. Second was about 5 hour induction and 5 minutes of pushing. Third was three hour induction and also a few minutes of pushing. Good luck OP![/quote]
