Hi girls,
I have been reading your posts and thought I might just post a little bit of advice. I can't guarantee it will work though, LOL. I had a 16 hour pre labour with my DS (which was quite a shock as I had never had pre labour before, I have always had very quick labours from the first contraction). I had been getting BH from 25 weeks, as well!! I was so sick of being pregnant and would do anything to get things happening.
This is what helped move things along for me: I borrowed a fit ball from my SIL and sat on that with my knees apart and bounced gently for about half an hour (contractions started straight away), I then went for a walk around the block (make sure there is someone with you) and then bounced on the fit ball again. I think the fit ball really helps bub get into position and it can also help with back pain.
My bub was posterior and I was having really bad back pain. I went hospital to get checked and I was only about 2cm dilated, so the nurse gave me a stretch and sweep, then BANG...4 hours later Jack was born. I wish I had of gone to hospital and got the stretch and sweep about 16 hours earlier, LOL.
I know just how impatient you are all getting, and I hope things happen soon! Then you will be on here posting how you miss rubbing your pregnant belly, LOL.
