I'm 6 days overdue and I don't think this bubs is ever going to move out ;)
6 days!! :lol:
My sister told me she went 12 days before spontaneous labour happened to her :o There is NO way I can wait that long.. come on baby....come out and meet mummy and daddy!!! :)
Your prayers, labour dances and any tricks for an imminent labour is muchly appreciated..... ;)
i could suggest you try what got u pregnant in the first place :D apparantly that works lol
Tried and tried again....Poor DH all worn out ;)
Baby will come i promise you!
my first was 15 days over and 2nd was 9 days..
Nipple stimulation worked here. I didn't think it would but I did it at 10pm and my waters broke at 5am next day. Could have been coincidence, but then again maybe not ;)
I also had accupuncture to get contractions going which worked really well!
I was going to suggest accupuncture as well.
lol it will happen. good luck for when it does :D
Sending you some labour vibes! Hope it happens soon for you and you get to meet your gorgeous bub!
This is the longest part of pregnancy - every day past your EDD! I was 8 days over, and well and truly over it by then! I second the suggestions for acupuncture or acupressure - might help? But then again, bub will come when ready, and I swear it's one of the biggest lessons we learn as parents....patience ;) Can't wait to see your BA!
i feel your pain as i am only day 2 past due date with fifth baby and seem to be having endless false contractions that never go anywhere that are driving me crazy.
i know with my four baby when i was four past due date i used four evening primrose tablets inserted and contractions started only 4hrs later but could have been coincidence.
I was 14 days over with ds then induced. He was overcooked. Hope your bub comes really soon.
One thing I can guarantee is that your baby will come out! I do remember feeling the same way though. I was induced at 14 days over, but to be honest, with hindsight, I really wish I'd waited a bit longer.
It's just a matter of days now - rest up and spoil yourself a little.
Exactly what I was going to say. Get yourself as well rested as you can. Hire out the DVD store!:
Yep I second that :D helped me.... I had it and 2 days later DD came! I was 7 days overdue so I know how you feel.....:
It will happen!!
I was 41 + 4 and I was induced for 3 days and still nothing so I know how it feels!! But I went home for the night and totally relaxed and when I went back in the morning I was 2cms dilated!
So I suggest to try and relax.. hard I know!!
Good luck!
Oh you poor thing! DS was 12 days late (though when he was born, we had a great birth and he looked just perfect - not overdone at all. DH says it takes a bit longer to bake perfection! Baby will come when they are ready - we knew our dates exactly and DS just needed a bit longer in than textbook).
Your little one WILL arrive!
There are so many things to try (which I'm sure you've googled) but this is what we did: accupuncture, BD, massage with clary sage (check with your MW first), spicy food, kurb walking (lots and lots of walking!), EPO, raspberry leaf tea, drive on a bumpy road etc. Some of them I didn't really expect to work, but at least I felt like I was doing something!
Also, my MW said that average for first time mums without intervention was 9 days late (so maybe think of it as you are actually 3 days before your due date!)
HTH
oh i'm in Bendigo too. My first was 40+7 and second 40+8. I know it seems like a long time right now, but retrospectivley with both pregnancies I would have been happy with a couple more days. if it haasn't happened yet it will very soon, hang in there nothng wrong with a slightly overdone bubba
Hands and knees and scrub the floor ;)
Worked everytime for my mum :rofl:
Hope you get to meet your bundle soon :)
Hi everyone-
Thanks for your support. I'm still cooking, still alittle frustrated....I feel my maternity leave ticking away with each day- one day less at home with my baby :( Oh well...any day now surely!!! ;)
Can you go for a long walk? Worked for me, but may not work for you...
Worth a try? If you can!
My first was 41+1, my second was 41. A friends little boy was born at 42+2, 16 days over. They wanted to induce her & tried to scare her into it, but she refused & he came when he was ready ;)
