First, 5.36pm, Friday. Second 4.35pm Wednesday. Third 10.00pm Thursday (his 30th birthday today in fact!) Fourth 1.55pm Tuesday. First two kids were induced, so their birth-times were somewhat artificial. The second two were born after very quick active labours…3hrs for the third kid and 1 hour 55 min for the fourth. ---

Without the information in front of me I only remember my 27 year old was born very early in the morning. My 11 year old was born at exactly 12:00 in the morning, and I know this because I was in labor ALL Christmas day. She had no interest in being a Christmas baby. ---

11:52 p.m. on a Wednesday. I was annoyed that I missed the season finale of\*\* St. Elsewhere\*\*, being preoccupied with labor and delivery in my own version of “Hell in the Hospital.” 😉 ---

A bit after 1, two years ago today! I don’t know the exact time because it was one of those semi-emergent general anesthesia c-sections. ---

I have two. She is 25 and he is 21. They send me reminder emails a week before their birthdays. I can’t be counted on to remember their birth-dates and you expect me to remember their birth-_times_? ---

Godawful early morning times. 4:45 AM (more or less, I don’t remember the exact minute) on a Saturday morning for the first, and about 2:30 am on a Wednesday morning for the second. ---

Each of mine was born in the early afternoon - 1:30 or thereabouts. Dweezil after 14+ hours of hellish induced labor with botched epidural. Moon Unit via urgent c-section (vs. emergency - I had pre-eclampsia so “get baby out in the next hour” versus “get baby out 5 minutes ago if possible”) at a similar time of day. Oh, and the epidural didn’t work so well for THAT one either :eek::(. Dweezil was born on a Saturday; Moon Unit on a Friday. ---

No kids of my own, but my official birth time is thereabouts of 14:00, Ed was 1:30 and Jay 11:30. Mom can’t remember which times they were born, she needs to ask me. I was the first family member to hold Jay, so you bet I remember! 😃 ---
