    Thanks ladies,

    The ob seemed to think that it wouldnt happen, and that induction on thurs would be more likely... Maybe time to go jump on the trampoline?

    Beans if you have a fit ball bounce and hip roll on that or try getting on all fours and rocking and circling your hips. Or start walking!

    I've got everything crossed for you, beans.
    Even if things don't happen by themselves I hope that you have a beautiful birth experience.

    Didn't work for me, unfortunately. But some spotting is common as they have "stirred things up" down there. Just make sure it doesn't get any heavier.

    I'd be trying to rest. Labour hormones are apparently strongest at night/early morning so it might start up again overnight... and if it does, you want to be well rested.

    Just MHO.

    All the very best - I know how much you are wanting this to happen!

    Thanks ladies,

    Ladylove I dont have a fitball, but Im trying out the down on all fours bit, and Im moving about Im trying to 'work it'

    OP, totally agree, I always have gone into labour in the middle of the night, so heres hoping things start up later tonight. I had a s&s with DD2, but never had contractions or anything until I was in full blown labour with her a few hrs afterwards.

    Apparently I scored low on the bishops chart, so my ob thinks it wont work that well. Im still holding out that things could happen for me. The contractions have lessened in the last half hr, so Im not sure what that means. I would love to be holding my little sprout tomorrow morning, but I suppose I can only wish at this stage. That being said I am going t otry everything the ob suggested. Heres hoping it works.
