Aloha, my first daughter I was in labor for 18 hrs / 7lbs 5.8oz....My second daughter was two hrs / 9lbs 6oz....I do believe this one will be longer then then the two and harder>>Its the samoan blood.....They do say labor getts easyer as you have more children....but every pregnancy is different.

I know the thought of pushing and unreal pain is scaring you right now. Try to think of your happiest moment in your life and how that one happy moment brought you here an now to give birth to this blessing of joy you and the one you love created. If not just remember to breath, scream if you feel the need to do so. At some point in the middle of pushing you might ask for more pain meds or giving up in the middle of baby's head being right there....Once you look down an see their head you'll want to see more of them...So give 'em one last push and you'll be there.... 

I hope this helps. Don't worry your in my prayers. God bless you and baby...
