im 39 +6 today (tuesday lol) i thought id lost a tiny bit of my plug last week but not im thinking it may not have been as ive lost no more. i thought i had a contraction aswell but im also querieing this now and think it might have been that lightening when the baby drops lol.
ive drank a cup of rasberry leaf tea but cant bear the taste so thats out the window, ive been having sex every other day or so, ive walked quite a bit, ive been taking 1 senna every other day or so to try and get my bowels moving a bit and ive been taking 2 primrose oils for about 2 weeks this week ive upped the dose to 2 1000mg instead of 2 500mg. and still nothing, not even a twinge! ive been getting in baths as hot as i can handle 2.
im seeing the midwife tomorrow and her head betta be engaged lol! i think it is because of the increased discomfort the past week.
id probably do pretty much anything apart from that castor oil to try n get things moving i dont mind going over my DD but i really dont want to get induced xxx
Aw hun i'm so sorry to hear that, I can imagine how frustrated you must be right now! The only thing i've heard of that you haven't tried is there are some websites that show maternity acupressure that people swear brought their labor on in a day or so
I hate to say it, but you still have a possible further 2 weeks before you have to have an induction, depending on how baby is. I know it is annoying to hear, and I know how frustrating it can be at this stage, but as soon as baby is ready, she will make an appearance! x
