It is variable from country to country, but in general you are right.

In Mexico we use "de la madrugada" from 1:00 am to 5:00 am or before sunrise. "De la mañana" or "del día" since sunrise to 12:00 pm. "De la tarde" from 12:00 pm to 7:00 pm and finally "de la noche" from 7:00 pm to 12:00 am.

We say "el medio día" when is it 12:00 pm and "la media noche" at 12:00 am.
