Waiting is the worst part....

My due date is Saturday and as of yesterday I'm 2.5cm and 50% effaced....it's soooo hard waiting for our DD to make her debut.

They keep telling us she's on the bigger side and we had a growth sono yesterday and their estimate is 9.1 but then they said how inaccurate that could be too.....the Dr. at one point mentioned c-section if she's too big.

I want to get her moving already -- we're ready as we'll ever be Chat Icon

What can I do to get things going other than a walk and Chat Icon ?? Spicy foods kill me with the affects of heartburn

I've heard some girls say castor oil does the trick.

Sit on exercise ball....



exactly, sit on it and rotate your hips. IT is supposed to at like a funnel. I have also heard stairs, squats, long walks. But in the end, she's gonna come when she wants to, sorry. She'll be here before you know it!!!
