    The thing that I think worked for me was having a big meltdown, emotionally. If you feel yourself getting ovrwhelmed and teary, just let it all out. I felt like my body was letting me down, it had gone into spontaneous labour before my Edd once before, why was I now over?? So I let it all out and went into labour 12hrs later.
    That's not actually a bad idea. If you are stressed Dusty, your body will be full of adrenaline that needs somewhere to go so it stops interfering with oxytocin release. You could just let all your frustration out on a pillow - yell, scream, punch it without holding back and let your body burn up those stores.

    Dusty, just wanted to pop in & let you know I'm quietly thinking of you and cheering you on as you prepare to welcome Phoenix earthside. Like Mel said, mabe you just need to bunker down, release anything you're holding onto emotionally and let things flow from there.

    I hope you're appointment went well today.
