The dr said I was a good pusher, I just wanted them out at that point. We were team green so that was another incentive.

DH remembers my 14 hours of labor being long, but said pushing was quick. He thinks it was an hour or less. I was watching the morning news before they set up the table to push and did that after a few pushes. They stopped it right when I was ready to push him out, the urge right at the end to be ready for him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-you-push-for/page/3#post-1456673 Thu, 27 Feb 2014 22:10:18 +0000 .twist. 1456673@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2 hours!
