I am begining to think...

That all of these 'remedies' are BS.  I am tired of getting FB messages about someones great aunt 3 times removed who drank raspberry tea and went into labor 5 seconds later.  I mean is it at all possible that she was probably ready to go into labor anyway!?  I understand that sperm does soften the cervix but it's crazy all of these other remedies out there...I am convinced that the baby is going to come when he/she is good and ready.  Maybe I am just cranky because I hav e had no progress...but I am annoyed that everyone keeps telling me to do these things (and by everyone I mean my nosey facebook friends)  UGH...really what the heck will chocolate and pineapple ice cream do!?

    Ding Ding Ding!! They only work if you're body is ready for it. Sorry, I am sure it is frustrating.

  • LOL You are right, unfortunately.  Raspberry Leaf tea is supposed to help your ute contract more effectively, I believe, so even if you're not seeing results now, it wouldn't hurt to drink up!!

    Also... the chocolate and pineapple ice cream sounds great... who knows... give it a try... pineapple is supposed to help too... but I'm not sure of the details on that one!!

    I am not sure, but it sounds delicious!!!! 









  • Yeah the only one I'm really willing to try is sexytime with the DH and bouncing on a labor ball.  I can't "walk the baby out" because of my severe spd I can't walk for more than 10 minutes, and forget going up stairs.

    I agree! That's one I jusy might try  :)

     

    But seriously, if one more coworker or stranger tells me to have sex, I am going to lose it.  It's one thing to recommend spicy food or something, but jeez! Just inappropriate!

  • Agreed! It is annoying, and definitely inappropriate for the coworkers to be suggesting sex. Awkward! My office mate did that to me last week too. I didn't know what to say and just had to turn back to my computer...
