ol thanx andrea I think I may need them! ad as 4 old wives tales I know them and I've tried em but no amount of chilli or sex is moving this one! But i won't give up easily!!
♫ Happy due date to ya, happy due date to ya, happy dueeeee date ♫
My sister (who had 2 by this means) would swaer by going for a long ride in car and then walking for a good while. She did this twice and had an ealry sleep as she was nakers from walk and her waters broke both times!!!

Could be coincidence, but you never know!
But have you tried them all k8bailey? lol

The pineapples, the nipple tweaking and Im sure babys dad will oblige with the other! lol
Question Author
oh yeah he's always ready to oblige, but can't understand why I'm not that interested!!!
lol I wasnt referring to sex, although the other thing is close lol
chilli?? no! you want curry from the chinese!!!

i went into labout 4 hours after a chicken curry from chinese takeaway
Happy due date k8! Hope you don't have to wait too long.

How about putting your best and most favourite and incredibly expensive knickers on? Sod's law will guarantee that your waters will break then ;-)
Question Author
ok so i am now rumaging thru my pants to find a 'best' pair so I can walk to the chinese to order a curry! oh and pineapple for pudding ...again! lol
when i was pregnant with my first, midwife told me and a spicey curry, It gets the bowels moving which is something you body does when its getting ready for labour, and have sex as there is a hormone in sperm that softens the plug in the cervix.
And I can say it worked. not once but three times. but dont worry baby will come when babys ready
the sperm hormone is apparently better if taken orally. Your reply to that could well be the same as mine :)

is baby fully engaged and ready for the off?
lol red, thats what I was referring to yesterday when I said babys dad would probably be happy to oblige with the other!

Any news or sightings of k8bailey today?
Question Author
I'm still here and hoping the babys dad doesn't read this - its bad enough he knows about the sex!!!

Baby is 2/5 engaged but has been for about a fortnight.
sorry k8 :(

have you got a gym ball / birthing ball that you can sit on and rock your hips?

I found that towards the end i could feel baby really low down whenever i rocked and rotated my hips. Not sure if it helped or wether it was just gravity that sent me into labour.

walking up and down stairs is one ive heard many a time too
Question Author
i haven't got a gym ball, but there was a kid playing on a space hopper outside yesterday, if I see her today I'm might ask for a go!! I'm that desperate now! failing that it'll have to be the stairs.
argos and tesco sell cheap gym balls and they can be great in early labour
PMSL - I'd love to look out my window and see some heavily pregnant woman bouncing round the park on a space hopper!
