Still absolutely nothing!! I've tried everything, pineapple, gym ball, got curry, long walk, sex and still nothing. Got a stubborn little lady here I think xxx
I know it's not an up-to date research, but my mom had the same thing when she was pregnant with me. Due to all this she didn't even really noticed at first when I was actually ready to meet her so be careful, your little girl can decide it any time now. I'm sure it won't be long from now And one more thing that I can tell you, that might make you feel a bit better - I don't know if it's an actual thing, but my mom said it was easy and quick for her.
A lot of people have said that because I've been in 'slow labour' with all the signs apart from contractions I could be one of the lucky ones and not get many contractions before I have to start pushing. However I'm not getting myself too excited for that just incase I'm an unlucky one. Been having signs of early labour for about 4 days now, an last night about 4am I had a really bad tummy ache and felt like I was gonna be sick. This morning is also the first morning I've woken up and felt just as bad as I did throughout the night whereas normally I get tightenings all night and by the morning I feel fine so hopefully not long now xxx
fingers crossed hunni , i had been in slow labour for two weeks and when it finally actually started i dismissed it. like bitite said. keep your eye on the little things hunni, it's all building up to the real deal. vindaloo worked for me. some say its an old wives tale and it could have been a coincidence that i went into labour withing 24 hoursxof eating it but mw said as it triggers spasms in the bowel it can kick of contactions too! maybe worth a try!? xxxx
The hottest curry I can eat is a balti haha and I've had two in the past week, sex is supposed to be the best one but still nothing. I just hope it starts before Thursday because I don't fancy another sweep xxx
i hope you're like me hun and turn up already in established labour for your induction appointment. bad news is i was ten days late BUT atleast,even if you're not in labour right now, the end is very very nearly in sight for you hun and you know no matter what within the next week you WILL meet your baby!!!! focus on that she has been served her eviction notice and is now on the countdown to meeting you it's a bit like big brother only without the cameras haha xxxx
Last night I woke up with a terrible pain in my back that seemed to move through to my stomach. It was different from the past couple of nights as I had to sit up whereas before it just woke me up. Had it again this morning but still nothing regular xxx
dont worry about getting induced i did, they gave me a drip and broke my waters at least that way yu know its gonna happen lol mine was only bad as little man was back to back and we didnt know xxx
Hiya , I was induced with my 1st 2 n it wasn't that bad , just abit quicker than if natural , hope you get some good strong contractions overnight , have you tried leaning over a birthing ball , n circling your hips , should help with the backache and getting the baby to come away from your back if she is back to back , lots of luck hun , look forward to seeing how you get on x x
My little boy was back to back huni dont worry, they just come out looking up instead of looking down, people say it hurts more back to back but being my first i cant say yes or no to that, i had gas and air i wont lie it felt like someone was ripping my spine out but for all i know thats what every birth is like lol
Just relax, stay away from google lol and just go with the flow xxxxx good luck huni xxxx
I've been on my birthing ball all day but doesn't seem to ease any back ache I've tried to get some sleep in the hope I get contractions throughout the night xxx
omg becki not "dr.google" this last week alone, according to google, I've had a brain tumour, dementia and a molar pregnancy!!!! stay awayyyy hunni lol. i laboured in my back with my first, baby WASN'T back to back but thats where i felt the pain from the contractions most. some ladies do "labour in their backs" and its not always something to do with how baby is lying. what worked for me AMAZINGLY well actually was heat packs on my back. they worked more than the tens machine or paracetamol etc in the early stages. the worse thing you can do is panic. i did when i was in labour with my first, i totally freaked out and it honestly does make th pain harder to bear as it make all o your muscles etc. it is so much easier said than done but the main thing to remember is to stay calm and use whatever it is that helps you do that. hows things today hunni xxxxx

Fingers crossed, sending much love! x
