More commone to wake up in labour.. or go into labour in the day?

Question

I just can't imagine going into labour, but I can imagine waking up in pain. Which is more common

Answer 1

with my 1st daughter i woke up in labor with my son i couldn't sleep at all that night and went into labor at 6.30 x

Answer 2

I have had 4 pregnancies, 3 single births and a twins birth. Each time I felt very uncomfortable through out the day. I had a lot of pressure real low in my stomach and pelvic area. My back ached more than normal and I was having contractions, mild but noticable. I always went into labor in the evenings and had my babies in the wee hours of morning. My first was born at 1:11 am, my second at 3:13 am, my third at 5: 49 and my twins at 2:10 and 2:15 am.
You will likely start to feel uncomfortable during the day and then wake up in some sort of labor. But dont worry most labors take many hours and when the hardcore pain starts you will be laying in a hospital bed ready for your epidural :)

Answer 3

For some reason, it's more common for women to go into labor at night or in the wee hours of the morning, so many mothers are woken up by contractions.

With my 2nd baby labor started at 10 pm. With my 3rd baby labor started at 3 am.

So it always ends up that no one gets much sleep!

Answer 4

The pains woke me up at about 8 a.m. I knew my baby was coming out. They got worse and worse till I was scream'n out the door. But the birth certificate says 12:29a.m. (right after midnight) Stay at home in the comfort of your own home, till you can not stand it, or dont want to stand it and i bet you as soon as you get there, they will check you, freak out, and yell for help cause you will be ready! Be careful though, do what your body tells you to do. I'm just speaking from my own personal experience.

Answer 5

Anything can happened. Pregnancy, labour and child birth are very personal to each individual, even the doctor can't give firm advice.

Answer 6

Labor starts out slowly...contractions that gradually get more uncomfy to painful.

Both of my labors started in the daytime, and the kids were born the next night or the next morning.

Answer 7

my labor technically started at 830 am when my water started to leak but i didnt have my first real contraction til 630 that night. my son was then born at 716 am the next morning

Answer 8

I don't know, I went into labor with both of mine in the morning.

Answer 9

i think it is more common at night b/c it is when your body isn't focusing on much and figures it is a good time to have the baby.

Answer 10

well in both my pregnancies, i woke up feeling uncomfortable with period pains, that's how my labour started. but it was night and i was sleeoing, and woke up by it.
