Okay then, another question for 2nd timers...

How about nipple stimulation?  The websites all say to only massage one nipple at a time and to do it for 5mins.  Some say to do it for 5mins every hour and some say you only have to wait 15mins in between.  They all, however, say to stop once a contraction starts.  My question is what kind of contraction are they referring to?  I have lots of Braxton Hicks (I've been having them for probably 6-8weeks now.  Or do they mean REAL contractions, like painful ones?  Also, has this worked for anyone?

    Personally I find this whole concept a little......... weird..........

    I didnt try it but my mother, and many a friend said it did not make a difference for them :(

    I don't know of a technique really but I can tell you I know people it's worked for. My own mom being one of them. Her water broke shortly after trying it. If you have a pump, you could try doing that too.

    I used my breast pump with DD1 and it didn't do anything!
