Long labours have been my past story, for sure. I begin labour spontaneously, have never been i duced, and strongly refused Pitocin when it was urged on me. My first was 37.5 hours, heavily interfered/intervened hospital birth that required suction, as my son was Occipital transverse with a big head and got stuck. My second was 4.5 days of long, slow labour
