I found there were other things to worry about & though people say their deliveries have a pattern, it is not so. #1-24 hours of contractions before close enough for hospital and then 12 more hours before delivery #2-less than 2 hours from first noticed contraction to delivery...didn't make it to the hospital. Yes, homebirth, though unplanned as such. Freaked out yet? If it is of any comfort, you stop caring and go into some kind of survival mode when you have to.Lindsay RC Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15833973872391597686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5173375477951908141.post-71252867045135981132011-05-05T19:44:48.022-06:002011-05-05T19:44:48.022-06:00Or, (if you're like me...) your water will NEV...Or, (if you're like me...) your water will NEVER break and the doctor will kindly take care of it once you reach 10 cms and it's time to push! (Yes, this happened twice!) Then, you don't have to worry about cleaning it up or awkwardly running away. The only thing you'll have to worry about is how to best apologize to the saintly nurse who's changing the towels.Loraleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01199546256801071230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5173375477951908141.post-42873118590162975642011-05-05T17:56:45.253-06:002011-05-05T17:56:45.253-06:00Oh my gosh, I was the same way.

I bet it will go faster with this one, being your second. I'm no expert but that's what I'm hoping for you! :)The Meachamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17760465160412904691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5173375477951908141.post-86388240477805988252011-05-05T13:46:01.261-06:002011-05-05T13:46:01.261-06:00Oh you funny girl, you need to relax.

Women have been doing this for years and somehow it just works out. :) That coming from someone who had 2 failed inductions, an emergency c section, and now who just has scheduled c sections.
