Due today... ways to bring on labour...

[CKJ]

Thanks girls... I did all the pedi, massage stuff the second week of my maternity leave... my ob won't let me go past Sunday due to my history so that's why I was trying to go into labour naturally.... started raspberry leaf tea and smelling Clary Sage but so far no movement at the station... my back is hurting though so I hope that is a good sign... oh well, I would say he is really comfortable in there and doesn't want to come out into the cold... he has no choice Sunday/Monday though...

thanks again girls...x

Good luck! I wish my hospital would do that! Im still waiting and they won't do anything until the 12/8!!!

Hope you have your little man soon

I hope your little man decides to make an appearance on his own before induction.

Either way, good luck for a beautiful birth Silver Bell. Can't wait to read your BA

Thinking of you sb & wishing you a wonderful birth experience.

If you have a carrier oil you can massage the clary sage on your belly or back. I also used it in the bath

oh whats a carrier oil? would bio oil do?

[HotI]

Yeah, i have used almond oil or olive oil.

[sloane]

I'm not sure whether you could use bio oil but I use apricot kernel oil. You may be able to use olive pool? The idea is that essential oils are a bit too concentrated to put directly on your skin for massage so you mix it with another oil.

Carrier oil is best a cold pressed vegetable oil like almond, avocado etc.

I was in labour when you posted this Belly Belly my waters broke naturally and after 4 hours my little man came into the world.. will post a birth story when I have a little more time my little man demands a lot of my time... he is a windy baby...
thanks to everyone who posted... turns out I couldn't even be touched anyway... no rubbing of any oils...

[Butterfly Dawn]

Congrats Silver.
There are lots of ladies who have windy/colic/reflux babies you can chat to to get some support and vent to.
Hope your getting sleep and enjoying your babymoon

Wearing your bub could be a really big help for you. When I started doing that with my son, he slept a whole lot more being upright and close to me.

[Butterfly Dawn]

Defiantly! wearing has to be the best solution and the yummiest. Most babes grow out of being windy and in the mean time it means you can do stuff and snuggle
