Ive heard of some labours being so short. An expat friend here almost popped one out in her hubbys car last month coz it takes us 20 minutes from here to get to hospital.

Hopefully Im not going into labour. C-section booked for 10th January.

So how long then?

5 mins and 47 seconds

She was on the loo when most of it happened. We had planned for a home birth because Plankho was so quick. But best laid plans and all that

Oh blimey!!! I worked with a lady who said she was in labour in hospital and the midwife turned around for a few seconds and the baby shot out whilst her back was turned.... you hear all sorts of birth stories dont you. Everybody keeps talling me gruesome c-section stories at the moment.... I dont really need to hear them.

That is Lyttleton Harbour, very busy for its size. Its where our container landed.
Keeps my boy amused looking at all the ships being loaded/unloaded.
