Journey I think the BH don't do anything now, but when your baby and placenta will be sending signals that they are ready for birth they may help to get things starting more quickly, with ds2 it was like that for me. Here's to hoping! I know they are very annoing.
Kell good you have a nice program for today, hope you will have to cancel it :)
Have any of you done any research on Evening primrose oil to soften the cervix.. I found a link which states its safe to take from 36 weeks. Inducing Labor - 40+ Natural Ways To Induce Labor On Your Own
No I haven't. Is that the same as what they call wonderoil?
Checking out your link now
That's very interesting, a lot of options!
What they call wonderoil in my country is castor oil, that's not something I want to use.
How long do they let you go overdue in your country?
I just read yesterday that in the Netherlands before they would induce at 42 weeks, now it's 41.3 or 41 if you want.
Here in Germany I don't know.
I really would 't like to be induced but I want a healthy baby more.
Well there's still enough time.
Here in Poland my midwife has agreed a max of 10 days over due. I would never take castor oil. Nor would I like to be induce.
I'm just checking out some seemingly harmless gentle things to do.. Slow working..
As soon as I hit 39 Weeks I'm planning to go full steam ahead.. to encourage this little one.
I believe it's similar to raspberry leaf tea, they both help ready the cervix but don't actually induce labour.
Unfortunatly I found out the hard way that nothing works! With ds2 from 37 weeks I tried literally everything! Sex a lot, the big o a lot! Ate all the foods, ran, jumped on trampoline, even tried caster oil twice (omg that stuff is disgusting)
Non of it worked :(
I have no idea how far over due I can go, I have a midwife appointment on Thursday, will have a sweep then and I think be booked in for induction about a week later, so around about 10-12 days over.
5pm here I'm giving up on a due date baby lol
:( O shoot well you never know, third babies can be very quick haha.Quote:
