  • Keep moving and be active.. good luck!
  • Walk and try stairs! Good luck hope it starts quickly!
  • Be active, relax in a hot bath, have sex, rock on a yoga ball, my personal favorite is hold the squatting position for 3 minutes at a time every 30 minutes. It puts baby's head on your cervix. :) In between everything, RELAX!!! Labor takes a toll on your body so if you feel tired, sleep! You will need your energy for pushing :) Congrats and best of luck hun, your bundle of joy will be here before you know it!! :D
  • Sex. I had a similar experience with my son. I went in on friday with close and consistent contraction pattern but wasn't progressing and they sent me home. Monday morning I was in there again and in active labor. Lots of sex, vacuum, and rest. You'll need all the energy for labor. Good luck and keep timing!!
