39 weeks today!!!! so thursday 12th and friday 13th lost lots of mucus plug week previous i had had a small bloody show! Been contraction on and off and in slow labour for 12 days now!
So i decided today this baby has to come out but also in a none stressful way whre im just trying to take it in my stride and not get excited! Yeah right!

Been on the old RLT, EPO and clary sage for 2 weeks now too

So this morning im up with my DS 18 month very very active! we go off to the park this AM where i decided im going to forget im pregnant and have fun with my little boy so we ran round the field,played sleeping lions, rolled on the floor played on the park and generally had a blast for just over an hour then i just could not do anymore!
started to have pains in my back at lunch time so DS went down for a nap and i literally sat on the OH and forced him to DTD, he has been very reluctant recently!!!! but we did i grimaced the whole way through and very uncomfortable for me almost painful for the past 8 weeks!

Then i had a lie down for an hour noticed my tightenings getting stronger so bounced on the ball for 90 mins, cleaned out my fridge, im just going to give my DS a bath, jimjams stpry and bed then im off for a 2 mile walk around where i live up and down lots of hills then when i return im hoping a bath and nipple stimulation with breast pump will kick these babies up a gear and i might end up on labour ward in the next few hours!!!!

So first day! possible success we shall see how is goes the contractions are def getting stronger but i have experienced more painful ones that still always trail off so im trying to keep saying to myself they are going to stop but a tiny part of me is thinking EEEEEEKKKKK maybe just maybe this might be it....... MAYBE!!!! xxx

Good luck hun xxx

Wish you good luck, hun!!! Hope all the efforts kick start something!

wow! I'm exhausted just reading what you have been up to!!! Fingers crossed for you! Keep us posted!!! x

WooHoo! Jogging got my first son out,and Castor oil got the second one out! I do believe that old wives tales DO work,lol.

Good luck

just got back from my walk, contractions are almost kicking the crap out of me but not quite!!!!

im started to get excited now but have been in this boat before normally 10-11pm everything stops or slows down so if i get past that point and its still like this i think its fair to say i will be making my way to the hospital but still a long way to go!

I did really consider trying castor oil did a lot of research on it i know most UK mums are so against it and i got quite a lot of abuse from some people on the yahoo answers site just for asking advice about it! i think if it was easily available in the UK i would prob try it but its not easily available here at all they dont sell over the counter would have to buy online and wait for delivery.

going to jump in the bath with my breast pump now so here hoping
dare i say it again EEEEEEEEKKKKKK!!!!!!!!

pains have become more regular and lasting about 45-50 seconds right now just need to go up in intensity then i will start timing, really want to time them now but i dont want to get my hope sup as i said been in this boat before!

im def in pain and they are making me wince and wave my arms about (i do odd things when im in pain with my epidural i sang lady gaga the whole way through getting mor ehigh pitched the more it hurt lol)

please please please to jebus or anybody who has influence over this kind of thing make my contractions stronger put me in to labour so i can meet my baby!!!! xxx

Sounds promising! Good luck and keep us updated!!!

I do hope this is it for you. I want to start eviction process from 37 weeks..!
