A woman is going to birth her baby.
The Oxford English Dictionary doesn't have much information on this phrase- just that it's a combination of hot (adjective) + headed (adjective), and that it dates back to at least 1603. The similar phrase hothead dates back a little farther, 1584.
Spans of times can be calculated by equating BC or Before Christ with a negative sign and AD for Anno Domino with a positive sign. Therefore the time span will be the absolute value of the difference between years.
the common word catch acquired the slang meaning of hidden cost or qualification in 1885 so whats the catch probably dates from about that time also or soon afterward as it is scarcely an idiomatic turn of phrase at all but rather straightforward talk
Dickens was a euphamism for the Devil. So "it hurts like the dickens" is another way of saying "it hurts like the Devil". It's a very old phrase that dates back to Shakespeare's day. Shakespeare used the line " I cannot tell what the dickens his name is" in the Merry Wives of Windsor.
... in its meaning of 'settle his hash'. Googlebooks shows this phrase no earlier than mid-20th Century. I'd be inclined to call it modern, but haven't pinned down the origin. It is not in Wordsworth Dictionary of Proverbs, The Oxford Dictionary of Slang, Brewer's Dictionary of Phrase and Fable, or Partridege's Dictionary of Catch Phrases. I am advised by a colleague that it is not in the OED. A somewhat similar phrase, American, with the same meaning, dates back to before 1860. 'Fix his flints.' See 'London Society' ed. James Hogg, Florence Marryat, 1872, page 492 and 'Life and Sayings of Mrs. Partington,' Derby and Jackson, 1860, p 252. Both are available in Googlebooks. (n.b. To 'fix flints' in a literal sense means to set them in place in a gun.) Usage in the phrase, 'fix his wagon to a star', seems unrelated. That phrase is Emerson, 1870, from Society and Solitude.
