Bexxie I really thought i'd come on today and find that you'd had youre lo. Pineapple has to be fresh not tinned aparently and it hasn't worked for me lol. Beenhaving some everyday for past 2 weeks, but nothingNever know hunni we could both pop together at this rate.

Not fully up on all this position of cervix thing all i know is mines long at the mo but is soft so ok to induce (would have been better if soft and short ) and looking at notes 2cm dilated. HAd a sweep today and been getting niggles all day but like you they not really up to much.

Keeping fingers crossed that lo arrives really soon for you. Keep us posted and

well just cried in the school playground with the pain,got in the bath and they were coming every 5 mins in the bath and i have been out about 10 mins and altho tummy stopped going hard I feel in so much pain it is a joke.

Caroline: I have bought Two pineapples both of which will be eaten tonight they are fresh as the enzymes are not the same in tinned.
When are you being induced? this baby will be another week you watch. weird thing and I dont know if anyone can help on this,when you have a contraction start does it feel like you want a wee just as it goes hard

bex

omg stop having baths!! lol

they slow and even stop laubour pains before your in established labour.

When you get more pains run up and down the stairs, go for a long walk, any light excersise should bring it on more, then you can have your baby

aww hun i hope it speeds up for you very soon

I got told if it was tru labour then a bath will make it the contractions more intense but if it is not true labour it stops them- My midwife told me that why they always tell ladies who ring to have a bath and paracetamol, this is the way to see if it is true labour or a practice run.
I know everyone gets told different

When I was in labour with Alex when I got into the bath my contractions slowed from every 2 mins to every 4-5 mins.

I would eat the pineapple, drink a gallon of raspberry leaf tea, rub some clary sage (with sweet almond oil/grapeseed oil) into your bump and have some vigorous sex and make sure dh does the deed and you rest with your legs in the air afterwards

Whatever is happening it's definately your body getting into the swing of things and your little girl getting into position so try to think positive. A couple of paracetamol and a hot water bottle to your back should ease things a bit, or a tens machine should take the edge off of things.

Hope this doesn't drag on too long for you, you'll be meeting your LO soon though.
