What time did you go into labour?

[Mommabear20]

Just that really! I'm currently 37+6 and have read that most babies are born at night so got me wondering what time most people's labours started.
Go...

DS - woke up at 6am in labour, born 9.10am. Great time for it!

DD - twinges started at 5pm, born at 11.18pm. Not a good time because I felt full of adrenaline afterwards and obviously had a new baby so I couldn’t sleep. I didn’t really catch up for weeks.

First time 4:30am. Baby born sane day 10:59pm.
Second time 4pm, baby born same day 7:50pm

Went in to labour at 10am and he was born at 11.45am.

About 9pm with ds1 (planned c section but a week early, actual birth 1am.

About midnight with ds2. Natural birth about 7am.

Woke up with contractions at 8:30am after dtd the night before. She was born three days later.

22.30 for DS1 and 5am for DS2 although I have a suspicion my waters kind of went at 3am when I went for a wee but I was tired and couldn't be bothered to investigate so went back to sleep for a couple of hours!

Mid morning started with mild contractions with dc1 after an early morning sweep, arrived by 8.30 pm. Woke with contractions and diarrhea around 2 a.m with dc2 and was here by 8.30 a.m. DC3 section.

Had my waters broken at 9.30pm baby born 11,50pm.

Waters went at 11am, DS born at 1am.

Waters went 10am Monday morning finally gave birth Tuesday night 11pm.

3am with two of my three. About 8pm with the other.

Born at roughly midnight, 1am and 8am.

Dc1 twinges all day before, pain ramped up at 8am so went to hosp told I was 3cm and go home for a bit but I was 13 days overdue and booked for an induction at 10am so they agreed I could stay. Baby was born 2.19am the next day but at least I skipped the induction!
Dc2 again twinges all day and again 13 days over due with an induction booked 😂 went to hosp 6am this time also 3cm, sent to ward (as hosp was 40mims from home) checked again at 8am and was 5cm baby born at 2.09 pm that day.

Contractions woke me around 2am. Baby wasn’t born for another 54 bloody horrible hours though.

DS1 waters suddenly broke at 1am. Born (after a lot of faff) early evening

DS2 started feeling contractions at about 0930, born early that afternoon

DS1 - niggling pains started about midday. Getting a bit more intense by about 4pm. At hospital by 4.30pm. Baby born at 5.25pm.

DS2 - niggling pains started about 3pm (while I was buying toothbrushes in Poundland😬) More intense by 7.30pm. At hospital by 8.30pm. Baby born at 9.05pm.

DS1 - 10pm, actual birth was 46 hours later at 7:40pm

DS2 - 3am, actual birth was 14 1/2 hours later at 5:30pm

My last baby
Waters broke at 9am
She was born 11am

Waters broke 2.30am, contractions started 6am, DD born at 6.47pm.

Midday born at 3am

Wow! Lots of night starters!
Totally not ideal for me 😂

DS1 5pm
DS2 11pm
DD midnight

Laboured through the night with all three & all born first thing in the morning, earlier each time as labours got shorter.

It’s pretty knackering as you’re down a night’s sleep before you start newborn craziness but hey ho!

Middle of the night both times, and both born between 6 and 7am.

2am, waters broke at 8.30am then baby boy was here at 10.02am

8am - born 4pm that afternoon. Pretty short I think compared to many and not at night at all

Started the first mild contractions at 13:30, waters didn’t break until 9am the following day, DD born pretty much bang on 24 hours after first twinge.
