As you can see, I'm 39+ weeks pregnant and waiting to pop LOL! I was just wondering if anyone who has given birth a few times (or know someone who has) might be able to answer my question!

Both my previous labours started at 4am (weird?) and they both started off very gently and worked their way slowly into active labour. Neither labour was particularly quick (DS1 was 37 hours from first gentle contraction to birth. DS2 was 16.5 hours from first gentle contraction to birth). I can only hope that this labour will be quicker again!

Do you think I will have a similar experience again? Did anyone else have a set formula for their labours? LOL! I keep waking up each morning after 4am thinking "I guess it's not going to happen today" .

Any thoughts would be appreciated
