I'm on facebook, CVD! I'll pm you with my actual real life name with 2 conditions ;)First, no one knows that I've spent time on gender swaying sites and I'd wanna keep it that way. Secondly, I've spilled my baby's name here (Maggie) but no one else in my life is in the loop. I want to keep it secret till she's here, I'd like to unveil her name as part of our birth announcement. Coolio?Quote:

My feet did pretty good this go round but my hands started to swell early. My feet looked like blimps by this time when I was pregnant with my son. I remember my baby shower pictures from then and my feet were huge. They were actually scared I had PE but I didn't...just retained a lot of water.Quote:

mommyof3boys- i would not advise anyone to try and induce labor at 36 weeks. even natural ways shoudl be reserved for emergency situations or after 41 weeks
Oh for sure no mention of any details etc! No one knows I swayed either but they do know its a boy named Hudson hehe :)
Cvd I had to laugh at your PM because I didn't realize many people had my name. Wright is pretty common but the spelling of my first name isn't. I will search for you.Quote:

I don't think that evening primrose oil is used to induce labor. I think it just works to help soften the cervix in preparation for labor similar to the same affects of semen but I'm not exactly sure. I certainly don't want to induce labor so I guess I better read up on it a little more.Quote:

I know this because my OB said that my cervix was very unfavourable for labour and he expected me to go at least a week overdue on my due date. The day before my labour started and I had a very long early labour as a result.Quote:

I have also read a study that said eating 7 dates per day from 36 weeks leads to an easier labour. I figure it wouldn't hurt to give that one a go too. It would just be a tasty snack if it does nothing so win/win situation.
