But I was thinking the same thing, Push It! I had a C-Section and I would still think it was funny!
Or as I kept screaming, This is Ridiculous! (TMI???)

if you want to include more of the labor aspect, definitely "labor & delivery" or something similar. keeping it specific to birth day/child birth/etc seems more fitting for the 'childbirth' board about birthing, not birth *stories* if that makes sense?

Labor & Delivery is my favorite but I wonder if people will post birth stories under there cause although there is a BS category it could possibly fit under this one as well.

Both me and my husband's reactions for the moment when we realized it was time: "oh crap!" not exactly appropriate.
I vote Happy Birth Day or It's Time! Entertaining thread btw!

I like something with "updates" in the title like @MrsPen suggested with "birth updates" because otherwise you have the potential to get a lot of posts that would be more for "childbirth" that currently L&D.

@mrbee: I get that, but if I was new to the site and didn't see this thread. I would be wondering which board to post a question about childbirth in. I think if you name it L&D, you will end up with questions about L&D and not just people posting they're in labor. Just a thought.

@mrskc: Agreed! Hoping for a better name... we'll keep the thread open until we figure it out!

Some other more obvious choices:
Real Time L&D Updates
Live from L&D
L&D - RIGHT NOW!
@Jennimac: hah, I like "this just in ... laboring"

Labor Day? But I suppose that could be confused with a thread about the holiday

@aprk: Oh, I really like 'Live from L&D.' I didn't like 'L&D' because it could be redundant with the current childbirth board.
BTW, you have some great ideas!

Push it!! Tee hee hee!!!
I agree that we need something that covers all types of L+D plus fostering and adoption...
How about "Live Arrivals Board" like they have in the airport?? Or "Arrivals Lounge"?

After thinking more, what about "Labor underway" or "Labor progress"

Live from L&D is my favourite (gets away from whether to use labor or labour...Canadian here so we use labour)
So childbirth board would be what ifs questions about labour and this labouring board will be "am I in labour?" and updating other bees during your labouring, right?

no more suggestions, but i also LOL at Push it.
I also like "It's baby time!"

The problem with "Live from L&D" and other similar names is that it excludes Birth Center and Home Birth mamas, as well as not working for those "Am I in labor?" posts.
It's Time, Go Time, Baby Time, Birth Day, or Baby Day are pretty all-inclusive, so I like those.
