what starts labour.

[Olive]

if its oxytocin that helps with the commencement of labour, will it also make mum feel incredible tired? with the levels increasing as i know oxytocin helps with sleep.

any ideas?

i know there are many factors that bring on labour like bubs position etc..

[Heaven]

Lets hope so because I've been so tired the last couple of days, lol.
Will be interested to see if anyone knows.

Does it also make you incredibly cranky?

I woke up at 6.45 am this morning and was sound asleep again by 8 and slept through til 12.....

I hope thats what it is .....

Honestly, I really don't anything starts labour (other than being induced of course) other than your bub deciding it's ready to make its grand entrance!
Hang in there you'll have that bubba in your arms before you know it. Good luck.

Lol Nai, no kidding, the night before I went into labour with #1, I was the biggest cow ever. We went to my parents for tea and they were GLAD to see me go! So you watch that.
