    Bridg - I've been taking EPO orally but haven't been game enough to try it "down there"! I had an Ob appointment yesterday and he said my cervix was medium to firm. Maybe it might be worth me giving it a go....

    Harleysgirl - What you've explained is what has been happening to me, then yesterday I had a big "glob" of it

    Smallfryplus- Yep, it worked for me. On a Friday night, I had some twinges, so put an EPO in. Went to bed. Contractions kept me awake. Didn't put one in on the Saturday. Had bubs Saturday night.

    Boo- It's not as bad as I thought when using it 'down there'. Just make sure to put a pad on.

    Hey Boo it's not too late to join us in the 1-15 Feb belly buddies thread, one of the girls lost her plug a few days ago so is in the same boat as you, I'm sure she'd love to discuss the finer details of it as you go!

    Thanks for the invite Ali but i feel like i'm crashing the party this late in the piece! I did join when I first found out I was pregnant but I couldn't keep up with all the posts

    Bridg - I tired the EPO last night, has deffinately done something have been having mild cramping all day and have had about 3 shows today. Think i'll leave it now and just wait and see - have one more week until Ob wants to interviene

    My plug was just mucousy - kind of like the 'jellyfish' that a couple of pp's have mentioned!

    With regards to EPO - do you just put the whole capsule in? Or do you do something with it first? I'm thinking of giving it a go this time, didn't bother with DD. When can you start using it?
