Kids born the same time of day?

:) me too!!

ds1: 10.20 am (induction)
ds2: 2.16am
ds3: 2.am
ds4: 2.30am (induction)

I know technically my experience doesn't count as I had 2 ECS, but my two were strange co-incidences nonetheless. DS1 was born 24 May 2007 around 1pm (at 30 weeks) and DS2 was born on 24 April 2009 around 12pm (full term). I'd like to request a planned section for DC3 (whenever that'll be) for the 24th of the month IF SUITABLE for the babe!

Mine were completel opposite...both natural labors. BUT, it might make a difference that with my first I labored for a very long time...so it wasn't "just overnight."

Labor started with #1 at 7am Sunday and he was born at 5:39pm on Tuesday (no interventions, just long).

Labor started with #2 at 9pm Thursday and he was born 6:10am on Friday (much shorter). And true to the overnight, less predators theory. I can see that, it seems more babies are born in the early morning or middle of the night than other times.

I am hoping this baby starts labor in the morning. I was absolutely exhausted even at the early parts of labor with both of the boys, since one was days long and the other started right as I was laying down for bed after caring for two kids (one daycare child) all day. I would love a labor where I had some energy. Lol.

Mine were 10 pm, 8 am, 3 am, 11 pm, and 1 am. Only my second son was in the daytime and of course all my laboring was done at night.

Yes, I read this too...I'll see if I can find the article. Check this...my DD was born at 3:21 am and my DS was born at 1:23 am :)

DS1 was born at 8:39 pm - 14 11/2 hours of labor 38weeks
DS2 was born at 6:07 am - 26 1/2 hours of labor 37.6weeks
DS3 was born at 5:51 pm - Had contractions 7-8 min apart for 3 weeks before the finally admitted me and was in active labor for 12 1/2 hours 38 weeks

dd1 and 2 were early hours, dd3 i arrived at hospital at 11.30 am and had her at 1.30 so lunchtime baby, dd4 was a 5am baby and ds was a lunchtime baby......only dd1 was induced so 2 daytime un induced natural labours for me x

P.s i have short labours so much prefered the daytime babies as id had a full nights sleep and breakfast(even dinner with my son) so felt more 'ready'

DS1 was born around 10.30am, I was in labour since the previous morning. DS2 was born around 5am, I was in labour since the previous afternoon.
They were both spontaneous labours but I was given the drip to speed things up with DS1 because my waters had been broken for too long, and with DS2 they broke my waters to speed things up because he was in distress.

My boys were both born at noon, around 12:30pm, although DS1 was induced since my water broke the day before but no contractions developed. I haven't thought about it before, but it was nice to have them born at day time!

Mine were all over the place, all natural labors. DS1 was born in the morning around 11am, DS2 in the afternoon around 3pm and DS3 in the evening around 11pm.... hmm, by that pattern I'm due a middle of the night baby, lol! :)
