Well, I didn't exactly experience it myself....but I was there.What was labor like? I've always wondered.....
It's overstated. Yes, a first labor can be tens of hours long. No, it's not General Hospital for 30 hours. Maybe for 30 minutes.
My wife likened early labor pains to beer farts.
Her "pain scale" was 2 when admitted to the hospital, went to 4 late.
For comparison, the supposedly rare dural puncture headache afterward was a 10.
