superwoman11 · Apr 14th, 2012, 06:25 AM

Fed up exhausted and struggling to attend to my dd .
Hormones are all over and just want to be level headed again lol.
So here's what I've tried
5 sessions of acupunture
RLT tea bags and capsules daily since 34 week
Epo since 36 orally and vaganilly since 37 week
Bouncing on ball when get chance wouldn't say I've done it for mor than 10 mins
Sex
Walking
Nesting .

Symptoms I've had
Regular contractions that have stopped
Mucus plug no bloody show
Back ache
Tightenings and extremely frequent bh
Loose bowel movement .

Any one care to share there plans what they doing to help things progress or what they've done in previous labours I know there's similar threads but thought I'd start one

I'm really struggling now, in fact I keep falling asleep today and my little girl keeps shouting at me to wake up!

I've had irregular contractions since sun and backache, I need this baby out before thurs. My DH is going to a funeral 3 hours away, my last labour was only 4 hours so I'm worried!

I've been bouncing on my ball and walking but nothing yet. I was considering my breast pump later xx

Ooo we have the same due date

Symptoms:
My back and hips are in agony making it painful to sleep/walk.
Started getting an increase in braxton hicks and period cramps over the past couple of days.
Last night I woke up with pretty bad cramps which got my hopes up and then faded away..
My bump definitely seems to have 'dropped' this week.
Feeling unwell in general (headaches, congestion, nausea etc)
Insane urges to clean everything in sight.
Exhaustion.

Things I have tried:
Ive been drinking RLT and taking EPO since 34 weeks.
Recently started with the gym ball though im starting to think that it may be contributing to my bad back/hips

Eating pineapple but I don't think this has done a thing.

Looking forward to reading some new ideas here, I am dreading the thought of potentially 3 more weeks of this.
Good luck to you, hopefully we wont have to wait much longer!

Well I have been trying things since 37 weeks and you have had many more positive symptoms than me so fingers crossed these things will work for you. I have given up now and will just have to sit and wait.
