"i'm Ready to Have This Kid D***it!" Posted: 08-01-05 15:02pm
I hear that's how everyone feels towards
the end of their pregnancy, but I started
feeling like that at 6 months! Today is
due date #1 (my due date is different
depending on which of my doctors you ask-
i've moved alot during my pregnancy) and
i'm praying every night that I go into
labor. So, humor me here...
What are some good ways to induce your own
labor, other than walking alot? Everyone
knows about walking, but that isn't
working for me either. It just makes my
legs and lower tummy feel sore. :cry:

is the most successful, apparantly!

Sex threw me into about 12 hours of very
frequent painful contractions, and then
they went away. My next doctor's
appointment was the following day and I
effaced another 25% and dilated a
centimeter! So even though it didn't kick
start true labor it still helped! :d

Yep all of the above. I hear that
raspberry tea is good too & definitely
sex, as sperm contains a hormone that can
start dilating your cervix!!!
