I arrived at the hospital at 645am was dilated to a 5. By 9am I was dilated to a 10. My doctor arrived at 930, started pushing at 945 and my baby girl was born at 10 24am. So I had a very short labor, but it was hard and painful since I did it without the epidural.

From Wednesday evening to Saturday night. I went in labor on my own, then got induced Friday to speed up the process. Pushed for 2 and a half hours with no meds, then they finally figured out that my baby was too big so I got a csection. It sucked lol. The epidural was amazing though. Didn't even hurt after that.

i got the epidural at 2 cm (thats as far as i progressed) and it was wonderful. i was pretty much forced to get it when my blood pressure went up to 150/110 because of the pain
