baby due tomorrow and fed up...

Well I am now 39+6, and still undoubtedly pregnant!
Been having more intense braxtons, period pains, backache, pelvic pressure and lost my plug ages ago, but he doesn't want to come out. I've had a sweep, which just made me bleed and cramp, tried clary sage, spicy food, walking, Raspberry Leaf Tea and I am now even contemplating castor oil! I was induced with Alex at 38+5, so this wait really is killing me!

Any helpful hints, ladies?

i went into labour after going to the dentist and it was only a check up so may be worth a try lol ytou have to have sex alot for it to work as semen softens the cervix but you have to have alot

Sex is out of the question unfortunately, as my OH is out of the country. I could try and get an appointment with the dentist but I think that the baby would be well and truly here before I actually got an appointment... Joys of the NHS. I've been hoovering, scrubbing, shopping... All to no avail. I think that I just have to face facts - he'll come when he's good and ready!

No tips but all the very best of luck & I look forward to hearing about your new arrival when he puts in an appearance! xx

Yeah OH will miss the birth

I'm a bit gutted about the whole situation to be honest - he's missed practically the whole pregnancy, tho granted through no fault of his own. It's been tough to manage Alex and carry around a good 8lb baby, but hopefully not for too much longer..
