E17 Monica Tanner: The Myth That Each Labor Gets Shorter- precipitous third labor followed by 12-hour fourth labor with vacuum assist

Monica's first three labors got progressively shorter. The first one was around 7 hours long, the second one a few hours shorter, and her third labor lasted just 3 hours total. With her third baby, Monica barely had enough time to make it to the hospital before her daughter was born!

Monica expected her fourth labor to be even faster. She told her doctor that she was going to sneeze and birth her baby. But you know what happens when you make plans...

Instead of a super quick labor, Monica's fourth was the longest. It lasted a full 12 hours, and her baby required a vacuum assist to be born.

In this episode, Monica shares how unprepared she was for her third labor, how that affected her expectations for her fourth, and how she and her husband were taught patience.
