good luck and hope all goes ok for you. xx
went to the midwife yesterday and asked her to do a sweep but she wouldnt and she now doesn't want to see me untill 16th April (17 days after my due date) which i dont understand because i thought they only let us go over 2 weeks before being induced?? is there anything i can do, im really struggling with the waiting and the discomfort and the midwife just doesnt seem to be listenng.
thanks
lisa
You can try having sex (if you can be bothered!)
Eat a curry
Go for a long walk (this one does seem to work well!)
Try eating some fresh pineapple
You could try two tablespoons of castor oil in fresh orange juice (this made my cousin go in to labour!
although i wouldn't as it can give you a funny tummy and i'm sure - like me, the last thing you want to do while in labour is splatter the midwife with diarrhea!
I find when i laugh my tummy goes rock hard and i start getting strong braxton hicks so watch a funny film or something as this may help!
I dont know what else to suggest apart from you could go to the hospital saying that you think your waters have broken and because you are due they might just take you in?
A neighbour of mine 'camped out' in the hospital waiting room refusing to go home as she was 10 days overdue and demanded the baby out! They got so fed up of her they took her in and started things off for her! ...Maybe it's worth a try?
Good luck hun, Hopefully things start for you real soon, good luck!
