[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP here, how many minutes of pushing before an OB says we need c section? Would one even push before 8-9 cm of dilation? Thank you.[/quote] You wouldn't push until you were completely dilated (10cm). It is common for 1st time moms to push anywhere between 1-4 hours. Beyond that time frame, it is likely your OB would recommend a c-section if baby wasn't descending or if there was another concern (heart rate for example). With second or third babies, most moms push less than an hour and sometimes only for a matter of minutes.[/quote]
