This was pregnancy number 4. My first labor was 21 hours from water breaking, 12 hours from contractions, second labor, induced and was 12 hours, third labor 3 days and then c-section, 4th labor, induced and was 16 hours! It didn't get any shorter for me. I was told that once I started having stronger contractions I would go very quickly. I only went quick at the end when I looked under my blankets and realized that the baby was out! :) The rest of the labor was slow.

Hope this helps. I know there are a bunch of sites that talk about EPO.

Good luck!

Cindy
