Re: Due date in 3 days
Wow! 3 days, YAY!!! You never know, your water might break tomorrow! Walk around alot tomorrow! When I had Robbie, I had not progress either, I went to the mall and pop! I thought I pissed my pants!
You know I've got my fingers crossed for you. Rylie wants to meet her BFF! Come on Lily!
I hear lots and lots of sex and bouncing on giant balls helps.
Seriously. Those big yoga balls
And this is why in my last few weeks I will be carrying an extra pair of pants and undies with me at all times.
LOL! I used to be afraid of the water breaking but I kind of wish for it now... haha. : ) I don't really want to go anywhere by myself right now though!
I guess I will blow up my big ole yoga ball and try it...the sex ***** sigh***** I think that's a myth.
Well, none of the tricks worked for me- I went 5 days late. But, my water broke while I was cleaning the already clean guest bathroom for the umpteenth time! Got the urge to do that? I was unstoppable, until it broke- gross. I thought I was safe, hearing that 10% thing from the pregnancy boards. Lucky me. I'm a 10%er! But, by that time, you just don't care anymore! LOL!
Soon, Jen! I know it's rough to be so big and pregnant in July here!
Are you sure "yoga balls" are the type of big balls they are talking about bouncing on haha!
I hope you dont have to wait too long. I am sure by that time I will be like "ok...just do what you gotta do to get this baby out of me"
Good luck...keep us posted. Spicy foods, lots of activity!!!!!
Wow, Jen, that's so soon!! Yay!! And, FYI, the sex thing is NOT a myth. There is a something in semen called prostaglandins that can "ripen" the cervix, which will help it dilate and efface. Also, an orgasm in a woman produces oxcytocin which is the same hormones that promotes contractions. The synthetic form of this hormone is called "pitocin" which everyone recognizes as the drug they use to induce labor. So ther definiely is some science behind it. Not saying it works all the time for everyone but it definitely couldn't hurt.
Except I would imagine that when you get to this point in a pregnancy, sex is the least thing on your mind. Plus, the sheer logistics of it......????
Cartwheels LOL!... and you are totally right sex at this point...not so easy! ; ) I've been trying the walking as well (at night of course cause it is so freakin hot!)
