My mother was in labor for over 36 hours (maybe more, she told me but I forgot) in 1976. You know that would be a C-section nowadays. She had two more children after that. I don't know how long her labor was for those but I assume it wasn't as bad.

My wife was in labor for 40ish hours in 2016. There was never any pressure for a c-section.
