Mothers , Where did you go into labour?

I started with back ache at home, 9:15pm on the Friday night. I didn't know then baby was back to back and didnt end up arriving until 6:20pm Monday!

I'm pregnant with my second and am desperate for baby to be in a good position!

My wife gave birth in our Ford Sierra in a farm gateway.... Easiest labour she ever had

My waters broke in Costa coffee while out shopping!!

My waters broke at home with both my children with contractions starting about 12 hours afterwards. I had my first at the hospital about 4 hours after I arrived - a 9 hour labour altogether from first pain.

DS was quite impatient to arrive though. Labour lasted 90 mins all in with only 5 mins of it in the hospital. We literally slung the car outside the hospital entrance, waddled into maternity with me yelling that the baby was 'coming now', leggings down, baby out... Job done!

It was a little traumatic at the time as I firmly believe that my babies should be born in hospital and definitely not in a car in rush hour traffic.

My waters broke, for both my girls, within an hour of them being born.

That made it difficult for my exasperated husband (second time round) not to be vexed at the hospital when they they asked, "If her waters haven't broken, why are you here?"

Forty minutes later our second daughter was born.

Not that I condoned it, but I understood his smug grin at the midwife.

With my second baby, I was woken up by a huge labour pain at 4am. I shot out of bed like a bullet! My labours go on for hours and hours though, so I just walked around, then at 7am my waters broke, so my DH then took me to hospital. Didn't have my baby till 5.15pm.

In the middle of my court divorce hearing- the poor solicitor helped me into a taxi to the hospital contracting and waters gone, i was a complete mess!!! LOL had my wee baby girl 10 hours later rushed off to NICU (she was a bit early!)

At home with my first - woke up in the morning and sent husband to work as I thought it was just gas!

Contractions started at a Chinese restaurant with my second but I stayed till I'd had dessert

Both times were fairly quick with minimal pushing
