self induction making progress

edited October 2011 in Third Trimester
So I've done a butt load of stairs, sex, baths, evening primrose, pineapple, red raspberry leaf tea, and squats and finally making progress within 5 days. Dilated to 2 and 50% effaced compared to nothing ready last week. Also losing chunks of mucous and bloody show;) yea finally, now if I could just pop this baby out!

  • I was 2 an 50% last week but I'm not having any discharge wonder y ? That's great progress I wish I wasn't so lazy id be trying all the stuff ur doin !
  • I need to do what you are! I am at my apt now so If she checks me ill know if I'm more than 1.5cm and 50% effaced I don't feel like I've progressed tho :( IV just been walking kinda a lot and I live. On the second floor so I do a decent amount of stairs and sex. I'm to chicken for the epo lol does it hurt? And what's the raspberry tea?
  • Oh wow maybe I should try it cause I do not want to go past my due date lol
  • I don't know if it has anything to do with it being my 4th? It was fresh pineapple I ate a little more than half but my stomach was hurting. Also like 3 epo vaginally right before bed. It doesn't hurt at all. If its hard to put in I just put a little vasoline on the outside so it went in easier and put it as close to your cervix as possible. Make sure u wash your hands really good before. Also I got the raspberry tea leaf pills at a health food store. They're supposed to help strengthen your uterus
  • maybe try that ball everyone talks about here? lol *LABOR DUST*
  • Well I've been bouncing on the end of my bed and lots of walking. Keep losing more of my plug and still having contractions for almost 30 hrs now
