Hi Heather. Sounds like your mind is racing ahead in anticipation of your new little bundle! Good for you to be so organised with your thinking/planning!
Viv's labour started @ 8pm at night (and lasted 31 bloomin' hours!)
Blake's labour started @ 4.30pm and lasted until 9.31pm - 5 hours.
In answer to your question - no pattern at all. They were both so totally different.
ETA: Viv started Friday night with 8 min apart contractions. She was eventually born @ 3.02am Sunday. Went to hossy 11am Saturday. Waters were broken @ 18.30 Saturday after slow progess. Epidural approx 1.30am and vacuum extraction delivery .
Blake: Contractions started Thursday afternoon 16.30hrs - 15 mins after John arrived home as I'd asked him to come home cause I wasn't feeling 'right'. They started @ 5 mins apart and within the hour had reduced to 3 mins apart. Arrived at hospital approx 18.30 with 1.5min apart contractions on the way! Waters spontaneously broke approx 20.00hrs, delivered 9.31pm
