  • Definatly... I'm gonna shower and then use my excersize ball=)
  • Packed my bags just in case...now playing the waiting game sucks..mabye I should get some sleep
  • Let us know if it works! Im gonna try it when Im around 37,38 weeks! So 10 more to go!
  • don't know if it was a good idea but I was hungry so I ate a burger..
  • I did the castor oil trick with my 2nd pregnancy when I was 38 weeks & fell asleep shortly after but woke up contracting & shortly after arriving at the hospital my water started leaking lol. So it helped me. :-) **sending you some labor dust** good luck hun

  • Yay @proud_mommy_and_wife you just gave me some hope that it might work..how long after you took it did you start contracting and how much did you take?
  • Yay @proud_mommy_and_wife you just gave me some hope that it might work..how long after you took it did you start contracting and how much did you take?
  • I took 2 teaspoon fulls & started with slight contractions a few hours after. Maybe 3 hours or so. Also if your membranes are loosening sex will help & walking lol. But they say it only works if baby is ready. I wish you the best hopefully it helps you!!!
  • @praying4our3rd I will definatly keep you updated...its funny my hubby keeps asking me if I'm ok..lol
  • @proud_mommy_and_wife gotcha sex and walking.... I'm calling hubby to the bedroom right now and then gonna walk=) hehehe
  • Lmao. No problem. Trust me at the end of my pregnancy I did whatever it took to help speed things up. And my doctor actually told me with my first that rough sex helps lots of women once they've started dilating. And walking. :D
  • Ok ladies.... I did the deed with hubby and am currently laying in bed eating ice (very addicted to) had my first contraction wasn't strong at all but I feel a belly ache coming on...grrr.. things are hopefully progressing...omg I just had another contraction.. stronger then the first..
  • Had a bowel movement not to bad....having really bad crampy contractions not to painful..anyone think this could be a start..
  • Are the cramps low in your belly or up higher? If they're low, that's a good sign. If they're higher, it might just be giving you an upset stomach. Good luck!
  • Good luck lady
  • Good luck to u
  • Its low..every ten min lasting a min.there getting more painful..thanks for all the luck ladies.
  • Keep us posted..... Having baby number 4 (and last)....can't wait till I'm close to the end. I want to try castor oil so bad. Last baby I walked around four cm dilated for almost five weeks....was too chicken to try the oil. Good luck!
  • Yay good luck :D
  • Good luck hun! :)
  • Good luck. I am also to chicken. We will see how desprate I get when I'm closer.
  • Omg these contractions are so f-ing painful and very hard to time..i tried relaxing in the bed but couldn't so I went to my exercise ball couldn't get relief..took a bath and just got out and am in the worst pain ever.idk if I should go in or not I can't even sit still I want a nap cause I'm so tired but I can't even lay down.ugh
