Awaiting my second and keep thinking things will also kick off early evening. Interested to know if you have more than one if they came at the same time or not. Thanks

Quite different for me. About 2am till 2pm with eldest, 7pm to 10pm with second. (Third time induced.)

They each came when I expected/wanted them too. They each seemed to start only when it was ideal for them to do so according to environment and situation. Two daytime then two nightime

One born 2:15 pm, one 11:15 am, one 11:30 pm. This one just begun, so some time today probably...

duchesse · 23/08/2009 05:41

Oh, and waters went with each first- 8:30 pm with first one, 7am with second, 4pm with third, 4:45 am with fourth (feels weird typing that...).

SparkleandShine · 23/08/2009 07:01

Both at 3 .... one 3am one 3pm

3cutedarlings · 23/08/2009 07:34

DD1 8.30pm
DD2 6.30am
DS 4pm

According to my dd1's fact book the most common time for babies to be born is 3.30-4am.

Have to say i felt fantastic after my sons birth having not laboured through the night.

DD#1 born 1.10pm
DD#2 born 1.03pm

Co-incidence though I'm sure

EyeballsintheSky · 23/08/2009 09:46

Just don't have it at 3am like I did. It's a crapola time to give birth. Had no sleep the night before as waters broke as I settled down at 11pm. Then spent the first day fending off relatives and having check ups so went 48 hours without sleep at the time I most needed it. That first night alone with dd was bloody awful.

DD1 1.30pm

DS1 1.20am

DS2 12.50am

DS3 5.24pm

DD2 CS

DS2 was born on DS1's 2nd birthday. I went in to hospital at about 11pm fully dilated, but didn't go into 2nd stage until midnight. My brother was born the day before my 2nd birthday and I desperately didn't want the same to happen to DS1.

My labouring times were:

DD1 6am-3.30pm

DD2 10am-2.15am

DD3 10am-10.30am the next morning

DD4 10.30pm-shit! I can't remember what time she was born! Um...three hours later I think...1.30am or something like that!

With DD2 and DD3 I was in latent, niggly labour for hours and hours. DD2 I started labour proper at about 10.30pm and DD3 at about 7.30am.

So not really the same time each day for them all! Although, I did need the other DCs out of the way, and privacy to get labour started properly each time.

Ds1 started at 4 pm. Born 8:30 pm.
Ds2 started at 6 am. Born 8:30 am.
Dd started at midnight. Born 2:45 am.
