When I was in hospital having my son, my contractions suddenly stopped. I was told by the midwife to have a bath to get them going again.....and it definitely worked for me!My husband says he will leave me if I don't stop shopping......... God I will miss that man.0 -
I've just been googling how to induce labour and found this on the end of one of the websites:
Blowing up balloons: the theory is that the build up of abdominal pressure encourages labour to start.
Bouncing on your birth ball or driving your car down a bumpy road would seem to put the same faith in shaking things up a little.
Get a weepy video and have a good cry.
Wear your best knickers (sod's law will ensure that your waters break in them).
I love the last one!!!0
