    Nipple stimulation might help you, either just for the fun of it or to express some milk for your freezer for when bub arrives. Also if you have any clary sage oil in the house then pop a few drops in some milk, put it in the bath and have a long soak. Clary sage is also good if you put one or two drops in some almond or olive oil and massage your belly in a clockwise circle.

    Good luck! I hope you labour on your own

    Relax, rest, have a nice warm bath and use imagin your little one moving down into your birth canal, sex with sperm and an orgasm , look up accupressure points to help labour along

    Good luck!

    I can vouch for walking. Kicked all 3 of mine into gear! Even got DS to come 2 days early when the girls were over a week late I did walk about 2kms the night before though...& that was after walking around town all morning & nesting all afternoon! (MIL's house looked great when I finished! lol)

    Thaks so much everyone! Reading your replies has got me so excited!!!
    Nothing much happened overnight, a few tightnings here and there and a couple of mild cramps but nothing to get excited about - DH wouldnt even have sex with me cause HE had a headache Thats usually MY excuse lol!

    I am borrowing a friends fitball so will have a bounce on that. I just really want to beat Fridaays induction day, I was induced with my other 2 babies and would love the experience of going in naturally

    i went into labor 32 hours after my S&S, walking and bouncing helped and also lots of nipple stimulaion. I put on a dvd and got out the breast pump and pumped away for a while
