For some reason I'm just expecting to go into labour (eventually) at night time because I've heard it's more common. So was just wondering when you ladies went into labour?

Thank you xxx

dylan and tyler were at night but cos i was induced with finlay it was during the day i hope dexter is not long for you hun xx

night for me both times.
Lilliea contractions started in the night of due date, slow bloody labour for 3 days. Had her at 8:54 pm to be exact lol

hollie contractions started in the night had her by the morn 6:24am

aw hun bet your well and truely fed up!! hang on in there wont be long.

DEXTER

Im interested in watching this thread, because I also think im going to go into labour through the night and think she will be born early morning. xx

I was induced with Aimee, as I was already 3cm, so I didnt 'go into labour' with her.

With Lily I had a few niggles in the night, went for my sweep (at 38 weeks) in the morning and was told I was already 4cm. I stayed at home with Aimee all afternoon and then went properly into labour at about 7pm.

Both very different (!) but born 40mins apart, 6.04pm & 6.44pm so I'd say day time labours?? Although waters went the night before with bean. Where as with pip, well... you know the rest

Gosh not long at all Susan, you'll be wishing him back in there in no time but uurrrgh can imagine you're more than ready! It's so weird looking forward to something you have no idea how it's going to pan out! Hope you're resting up as much as poss xx

I started feeling the pain about 9pm, was moved to the delivery room when I was 4/5cm at 6.30am and had him at 9.48am

i had a sweep at 37 weeks (was already 1-2cm) waters went a couple days later at 7.30am......then i was induced the next morning so didn't techincally go into labour, was just prodded a lot but the waters/labour were both in the morning

i went in to full blown labour at 3am x started pains at about 10pm

my waters went at 2.30am followed by the start of contractions and i had lilly at 12.36pm the same day xx

with my first a doctor confirmed me to be 5 cm dilated ( i didnt think i was labour ) at midday and with my second my waters broke at midnight
3rd i was induced so will say day time

I was induced so suppose it doesn't count. Pessary given 10pm, contractions through the night, water broken at 10-11am when was only 2cm and Caitlin born 14.49pm.

Both mine were forcibly evicted im afraid hon - cmon dex give mummy a break lad

One of each for me, with Oscar my waters broke about 1am followed by contractions and he was born at 11am the same day, with Niamh I woke about 6.30am with contractions and she was born at 6pm that day.

Thank you so much everyone!! So the theory is right that spontaneous labour usually happens at night then.

I am getting really fed up, just want to meet him now, see what he looks like, see how Libby takes to her baby brother, get into a routine instead of waiting around, be mobile again and play with Libby etc. etc. (not much really )

I have got a feeling it will be a case of an induction due to going overdue so I'm kind of trying to expect that, if he comes before then I will of course be over the moon!!

with danielle i went into labour at 1am brittany 6:30pm aaliyha 9.30pm caleb was induced ava at 4am

I think the theory is that after a days worth of being mobile / upright that's more likely to brings labour on; can honestly recommend staying upright and mobile as long as possible either way; as once it's started you're next thought is how long it's going to be! ("ooo I've got ages yet..." I quickly learned it's very true that no two labours are the same!) xx

Suse one word....trampoline

well i clicked day, as i sneezed and broke waters at 7am, but was actually in labour from 11pm and had him at 7.44am so take from taht as you will.

i'm also thinking my waters are going to go at night, so brought some pid maternity pad things to protect matteress, its only 4 weeks old and i really dont want to ruin it just yet lol

My waters went at 7:30 in the morning.

Char

With Ryan i went into labour at 10.30am for 19 hours!

Jack waters broke at 3am contractions started at 8am, had him by 10.30am.

BOTH

Crap Suse..I would have to check both boxes! Full moons are suppose to bring on more labors..not sure if this is true or not..lets hope in your case that there is a a full moon very very soon! LOL! xxx

Thanks for all of your replies ladies!!

Grace, I've been upright/mobile for the last 2 weeks, trying to do loads of stuff around the house and taking Libby out for walks etc but nothing yet

Lise, trampoline?? Seriously???

Jen, hmmm I'll have to look into a full moon, although I'll be worried about him coming out as a werewolf!! (mind you Libby was/is as hairy as a werewolf ) xxx

Well mine was so bloody long I can say both but the 1st time I got contractions it was 21:15 so I'll say night time x
