Less than 10 minutes, but he was 4.5 lbs.
-
LO was 7lbs 6oz and I pushed for 1 hour 45 mins. I had a med-free birth and labored for 4 hours before I started pushing (water broke 24 hours earlier though). I think I could have pushed him out sooner but I was so tired from being up for 24 hours.
-
My water broke around 2pm, contractions started getting uncomfortable around 4:30, started pushing around 7ish, and he was born at 9:50 pm.
I got an epidural around 8cm, which slowed things down a bit, otherwise I think he would have been out pretty quick. I was very happy to labor down for a while and take a break from all of the pain. Pushing took a long time because of the effective epidural, they had to turn it off and let it wear off for a while so I could push better.
He was 6 lbs 11 oz, but I'm fairly small, so I think he ran out of room when my water broke.

About 45 minutes. Baby was 7 lbs 2 oz.
-
2 hours , DD was 7lbs 13oz.
A friend of mine recently gave birth an only pushed for 3 minutes! Baby was out by second push.
-
Less than an hour, and he was 8 lbs 8. My water broke at 1:30 am and had my first contraction then. I was in labour for just over 10 hours total and was only at the hospital for the pushing
-
First (and only) baby, pushed for 1.5 hours. 7 lbs 3 oz. I was only at the hospital for 1.5 hours before pushing and was at 8 cm when I arrived.
ETA: I had my first contraction around 11p, arrived at the hospital at 5:15a, and delivered my son at 8:08a. I was unmedicated, so I pushed in all sorts of different positions, which really worked with gravity to help move him down. Some on my back, some while squatting and holding the bar at the end of the bed, some while kneeling on the bed and resting my upper body on the raised head of the bed. The OB who delivered was shocked that I made so much progress so quickly, and I attribute that to not pushing on my back the whole time.
-
DD was 7 lbs 12 oz pushed for an hour and 35 minutes after 12 hours of labor. I remember when I first started pushing thinking, "this isn't so bad, baby is almost here!" After an hour it was like "omg this is horrible come out already baby girl!" I can't imagine 2+ hours eek!
-
15 mins - DS was 5 lbs 5 oz.
-
I had a long labor, but thankfully, the pushing was only 20 minutes long, and it passed by so fast. I had to hold off and wait for the doctor to arrive or else I would've just pushed him out right then and there! =P My baby boy was 7lbs 11oz.
-
I was induced and 29 hours after the balloon catheter was placed, I started pushing. It took me 2.5 hours to push out Benjamin, who was sunny side up, and 23 minutes later, Patrick was born after 3 pushes. Thank god for my epidural!!
Benjamin was 5 lb 10 oz and Patrick was 5 lb 4 oz.
-
About 45 minutes. DS was 7 lbs 4 oz. Nobody would have told me at the time, but apparently my first few pushes were good. After that, I didn't make much progress until probably 10 minutes before he came out.
-
I had 5 bearing down contractions then said I felt like I needed to push, 6 minutes later (just long enough for 1 contraction) and 1 push later DD was born. She was 6 lb 1 oz. Had I started pushing with my "pushing contractions" I probably would've pushed "longer" b/c my body wouldn't have brought her down on its own.
-
I pushed for just under three hours and still ended up with a csection - he was 7lbs 13 oz.
-
I went from 3 cm to 10 cm in two hours, and before I got the epi I was bearing down. She was a +3 station when I got it - then the OB had me labor down for 30 minutes before starting to push. She would have FLOWN out had we not, and I still ended up with 2nd degree tears. I'm so glad for that epi!
Once I started pushing, it was about 20 minutes. She was 7 lb 10 oz. (18.75 inches long)
-
I was in labor 12 hours in total. I was dilated to 10 cm by 3 pm and my son was born at 8 pm. Non medicated/non intervention birth, just over 7 pounds, I was pushing on my side and also kneeling.
