labour
i know that when you go into labour you have to wait until your cervix has fully dilated until pushing begins. i just would like to know once you start pushing and the baby is through the cervix and in the vagina/"birth canal" how long does it take for the baby to come out or can this vary form one extrme to another?
GynaeDoc
On average it takes 30 - 50 minutes of pushing.
