| Labour is unpredictable!
Sometimes labour takes a while if the baby is taking some time to get
into a good position for birth, but this can tire you out! Read about
how women and their partners have coped with long labours and the things
they have done to ensure they are rested and ready for when labour
really gets going towards the end! |

long posterior labour, Harlinah had her
first child with the support of her husband and two doulas. |

Lynette's story Following
a very long labour, Lynette had a caesarean
for the birth of her first baby. Lynette and her husband found their
experience was a very positive one despite the unplanned outcome,
because of the quality of information they received from their doula and
doctor, and because they had a complete understanding all the options
available to them. |
