1st labor was 23-24 hours, 2nd 12 hours. The hard labor for both was about an hour. My signs of labor were just contractions that came very consistently, for both. the contractions, for me, feel like really, really, really bad menstrual cramps. And they get worse the longer in labor. That is the best way I can describe it.

I was in labor for 19.5 hours with my first son. I awoke at 12:30am and discovered I was bleeding very heavily. The bleeding was much heavier then a period and I knew I needed to go to the hospital. Two weeks before my second son was born I started to lose my mucus plug (this lasted for days) and the day before I delivered I just felt worn out and a bit sick. I woke-up around 3:30am with mild contractions. The contractions gradually got worse and closer together. I labored for 7.5 hours (first contraction to last). Good Luck.

Was in labor for 12 hours but didn't know it till the last 6 hours. Had back labor at 37.5 weeks so I thought it was just normal back pain. Went to the Dr. and they told me I was 4.5 cm

About 14 hours from when my water broke at home to when I had a c-section because of failure to progress. My first sign I was in labor was waking up early in the morning and seeing a thin stream of blood..."bloody show" in the toilet. My water broke that afternoon... about 11 hours later.

i was in labor for only 45 or 55 minutes i can't remember. it was definately less than 1 hour for sure. my first sign of labor was really intense braxton hicks that were 8-10 minutes apart for about 1 hr and half

My first child I was in labor for 9.5 hrs, but thank God for epidural. I lost my mucas plug first (which I knew nothing about till I called my husbands Aunt) then about 3 hrs later I started to have mild contractions. With my second on I was induced so not signs but labor was only 2.5hrs and then my last and final lil one was 7hrs but once again epidural oh yes a God send. This one I would say I started feeling crampy and just by then know it was coming.I was having contractions and so I just watched them and timed them to see how far apart they became. Once they got to about 5min apart I decided I would go to the Hospital.But all in all it very per person. I would say once you loose your mucas plug be ready to go.

I was in labor for 3 days and quite frankly I felt like someone kicked me up my *** & the baby wanted to kick back.. It's feels like a really bad tightness around your abdomen.. My first sign was the liquid running down my leg and I knw I hadn't just pissed on myself...

17 hours the first time/ low back pain
4 hours the second time/obvious contractions
c-section the remaining/no labor
