@@jackomnms3399 What do you mean, evidence? If it was THIS EASY to predict the time a baby is born and also THIS precise, you wouldnt have women in labor for >24h and shit hitting the fan. What do you think why the midwives told them its too soon? Because they dont do it 500 times a year and the whole medical system doesnt know even the most simple correlation? No. Its simply not possible to really predict when a baby is born. Some take less than 2 hours in total, others struggle >24h. And its not one cause, there are lots of things that can delay birth. He (his wife) can be very happy that it was a very quick birth. Most births are not like that. Even after the first stage (active phase, full cervical dilation) a lot of things can delay the birth. So even at that point you cant tell when the baby will be born. This is WAY past the point of having regular uterine contractions.

I love your videos! Keep up the amazing work!

So, how accurate was the birth time of the second baby? I saw 6:15, but I didn't see any error bars or actual time.

My wife's experience of child birth also had the hospital staff failing to correctly extrapolate the time of birth, such that they failed to summon the anesthetist. Both times. But, to make up for it, the hospital charged for the anesthetist anyway, and the health insurance paid up. So that app might come in handy to some other ladies who don't want to just 'suck it up' and really would like the drugs that they are inevitably going to pay for. Just a thought...

This prediction should be included in the app!!! What an amazing idea! Had 2 babies, used an app and it would be awesome if the app said something like: based on your contraction length, it looks like your baby will be born at xy

Congratulations Steve! This got me thinking: to use the standard deviation as a measure of variability you must have had to calculate it as you would a moving average. Am I correct? Perhaps a better thing to do would be to estimate a state-space model where the mean and variance are estimated simultaneously as a function of continus time. It is an interesting problem. I will think about this some more.

"I-Its coming out!" "Honey, could you hold it in a minute, my hypothesis would be confirmed!"

@stevemould What technique, formula, or code did you use to pinpoint time of birth? Did you use excel or another program for stats? Thx

Duplicated Steve Mould's graph in Excel: - Initial columns: Time (T), Total Time Since Start of Contractions (TTSSC), Duration of Contractions (DC). - Calculate: mean(DC) + 2 * stdev(DC) for upper bound & mean(DC) - 2 * stdev(DC) for lower bound (stdev using 10 or more previous values of DC) - Calculate exponential trend parameters (m, b with LOGEST) of upper & lower limits using TTSSC & mean(DC) +|- 2 * stdev(DC). - Apply LN(b) to create a new value b1. - Use the exponential formula m*EXP(b1*value) to estimate values for upper and lower bounds for known values and future values. - Calculate intersection of future values with a simple difference.

Barker Carlock it seems just to be a polynomial function for both the upper and lower bounds of the data rather than a line of best fit and their intersection seems to be more accurate as the trend is not linear but rather exponential

Looking at the links of the contractions and the current time you could probably do you some addition with that if you wanted to

Came for the interesting title, stayed for the hilarious storytelling

There are other people who did the same calculations, eventually didn't get the exact time. Those people didn't publish the results obviously.
