Castor oil?

[cherelle]

Wow i wish i had your outlook hun, i had such a positive pregnancy until this last couple of weeks too.

I know 2 friends recently who had their babies on their actual due date! It must be quite rare though! x

It does happen - it's cool when it does.

My midwife had written in my notes that I was 1cm dilated but I guess I had to be for the 2 sweep attempts.

I had prune juice last pregnancy, last year - it wasn't too bad but if yer feeling sick or get queasy easily, it can be ewwww! I like the mixing it idea.

I had my DD at 120 midday on her Due Date Wasn't expecting it at all, especially for a first baby, am hoping this little man comes early or on time though, as uncomfortable all the time

Don't do the castor oil! My mum said that when she was pregnant with me, the MW advised her to drink castor oil mixed with orange juice (yuck!!), as I was late, think it worked, but like the girls have said, it's not the best way to speed things up, and the last thing you want is to be de-hydrated

Im wondering whats worse...... drinking yucky castor oil and getting the runs/stomach pains and possible labour ....... or staying pregnant for another possible 2 weeks?!! I dont think i can do another 2 weeks! x

I can't imagine wanting to hurry up labour. I'm quite happy at the moment feeling baby move and enjoying lounging in bed and not having any responsibilities for s few More weeks. Im also terrified to the core of labour. Will I change my mind ad be desperate to have the baby By 39 weeks??

I was terrified at the thought of giving birth but now I'm so desperate to not be pregnant anymore I don't even care about having to go through labour. I just want my baby!

I take Spatone instead of vitamin D tablets,it's liquid and you mix it with juice or water and it doesn't make you constipated..got prune juice in the fridge just in case ! I predict you will start your labour on saturday evening..once you've finished with Pinkymum and purplehippy labour watch ! I keep my fingers crossed for you XX
