Thanks girls

JM I wasn't dilated or anything yet, she just about managed to do a little sweep. But still might work!

Thanks Tiffany

 

[Princess81]

Have u got a ball to bounce on? Is hubby well enough to "help" ripen your cervix? Clary sage oil, rlt? Xx

 

[lewisca]

hope things get moving for u hun got my fx xxxx

 

[Jayceesmumma]

At least she was able to do one for you that's a good thing.. Some people have unsuccessful sweeps coz their cervix is too far back..
Fx this works for you!!

hi girls

I spend today's day going for walks, bouncing on my ball, and we just came back from a nice restaurant. I've been having period-like pains for the most of the day (they actually started even before the mw came to see me). I think they are getting stronger, but they are pretty constant - I don't think I can time them yet. No show so far either (I was told I was likely to have show after the sweep).

What you think? Sounds promising? I so hope it means that something's happening!

The baby hasn't moved that much today though (could that also be a symptom?), so we might go into hospital later to do the monitor thing again.

 

[Sarah13]

It does sound promising, got my fx that things happen tonight so you don't have to be induced tom. Oh babies movements do slow as you go into labour.

Princess81 I don't have clary sage oil or rlt, buit I have been using my ball a lot I don't think my husband is well enough for any serious help - plus that would be a very good way to catch things I'm doing some more acupressure though

 

[i.love]

thanks Sarah! He still does move, just less than usually, so maybe that's the reason!

 

[Jayceesmumma]

As long as he is moving okay hun.. Keep an eye on it..
Hopefully this is the start of things for you babe do u think ur up for some luvvin ??
Xx

 

[Princess81]

That's a bummer about hubby, just strap yourself to that ball and keep on bouncing. Or maybe a bit of DIY in the love department may help for your hormones can get things moving too

 

[i.love]

JM not sure I wanna do this with him as he is still ill... But maybe I can do some luvvin on my own tonight

Princess lol yeah I was thinking that!
