I gave birth to 9 babies. First labor was about 28 hours, second 8 hours, third 7 hours, fourth 9 hours, fifth 5 hours, sixth 8 hours, seventh 12 hours, eighth 10 hours, and my ninth I didn't go into labor but she was born C section . So not only were my labors a little long but my pregnancies were LONG. #5 was 21 days late.....had had lab tests etc to establish due dates and she was definitely that late! LOL Then came baby # 7...Anthony was 28 days late! His dates had been confirmed by USN and by lab tests. For the last 2 weeks of my pregnancy I had stress tests 3 times a week, and all kinds of other stuff to make sure he was ok. He was......but just kept growing .....he is now next to the smallest son at only 6 feet and about 160 lbs.!
So, I am used to late, long pregnancy babies. Gives you more time to want them more passionately than can be imagined.
I can be patient, and will be.
