    Rainforest- I hope that you have your little baby soon. I cant wait to hear your BA! DOnt think I could do the pineapple thing as I heard you have to eat a whole one at once!

    Try and get your DH to come around in the sex department...We also used EPO as lube (sorry TMI) but DD was born 4 hours later

    Had a couple of contractions but nothing regular. It annoys me as I ahve all these different kind of pains and dont know what is what. A week ago I had a bleed (sorry TMI) as well but it wasnt my plug.

    Bekz- Thanks hun! It has come round quickly all of a sudden. I will have to go and get some EPO tomorrow.

    Goodluck Ali. With DD1 I had 5 nights of on/off pre-labour pains. It was such a pia at the time but my body was doing a really good job of preparing me for a wonderful birth.

    Maybe relax and visualise your body and baby getting ready for birth.

    Ha Ha i just had to reply to this thread with the unfortunate back up - SEX SEX SEX!!! But he has to come through, if you know what I mean . Actually so do you.....OK at the risk of TMI, if you tried it by yourself....it's the orgasm that can get the contractions going.....

    A curry might help as well!

    I should probably shut up now!!!!

    Too funny.

    Evening Primrose Oil


    Last night I wanted to DTD with my man and he said he was too shagged from work!!
    So I got real snippy which got my hormones all riled up. I later had a shower...
    In the shower I did my own 'inducing'...and since about 10pm last night I have had really strong braxtons every 10 mins!

    I went for a killer walk this morning, which intensified them but they have gone back to being manageable.. still quite regular though. It could even be early labour!!

    (see sometimes you dont need the men to help get things goin!)
    Im gunna order some curry tonight..

    Amy that sounds promising.

    DP still wont budge on DTD so I got some EPO the other day as I ahave heard it does the same thing. I have been walking most nights as well but today I am just so lethargic that I just dont feel like doing anything today.
