Stupid Uterus

So, after Iggs mentioned it, I timed the menstrual cramps.  7-ish minutes apart from 6-10pm.  Then 10-14 minutes all night long as I tried to sleep.  Also, baby was still active. 

Now that I'm up, 7-ish minutes apart again.

Oh, for love of all that is holy, please stop or speed up!

Did I mention my Mom was in labor for 36 hours?

At least yours stop and start....mine are just continuous cramping for an hour or two

However, considering you've already passed your EDD, I'm saying....  SPEED UP darn cramps....get that girl into labor!!!!!!!

Do you feel up to walking (even around the mall?) I bet that will help push you in the right direction.

Good luck Apple!!!!

Walking is a great idea if you are up for it.  I walked around the mall for two hours the day after my due date.  My water "grosely ruptured" at 2:30am ish that night and Tillman was born at 2:52pm the next day.  Walking can really help.

Do you have a wedding video or wedding album you can look through? I've heard from a doula that an emotional response (triggering the love hormone - oxytocin) can get your contractions going.

I agree try walking. And keep hydrated. I had what I thought were contractions we called L&D they said to drink lots of water to see if they were real so I did and contractions stopped. So I was just dehydrated. Anyway I hope your little one gets here soon.

Yeah for January Babies!

Sounds like you also need some S>E>X>  if you can find it in you to do that at this point!  Lots of walking and spicy food, though my friend swears by scrubbing the kitchen floor lol
