Oh wow. You tried more then I did.

@lunabuena, I have tried dancing, squats, herbal tea, walking, pineapple, spicy food, hot showers/baths with Epsom salt, the ball is really helping keep the contractions going though! I'm 4 about to be 5 days past my due date!

Might not work but I tried everything. Didn't try the yoga ball. But I heard that helps a lot with pain.

@jaxxons_momma1997, I had raspberry leaf tea and I did a 2 mile walk and contractions started on due date.

@lilyandkaidynsmommy, yeah I was pretty bad.. They gave me like a day to see if I really needed it. Also found out I had a heart murmur that I didn't know of. They gave me one blood bag first but notice no difference so they gave me another one the next day and I got better.

I was at 1 cm the Monday before and it was a Monday morning I woke up in labor so you never know! Things can change in minutes or hours! Good luck :)

@lilyandkaidynsmommy, that would be awesome...hoping there has been a lot more progress, when I got checked Monday still wasn't dilated or effaced but was really soft so hopefully bouncing on this ball and stuff is helping

@mommabird, I couldn't get passed 9cm and she was in a different angle not breached. I think she was facing up. I was scared I kept telling mom how scared I was and how I wanted it to go by fast. I was really tired. I couldn't handle the pain anymore. I'm happy urs went well and I wish everyone to have a good one all the time. I hope my second one won't be to bad that I dont need another blood transfusion..

@jaxxons_momma1997, maybe your water will break lol or they'll be close enough and they'll break it for you at the hospital that gets stuff moving pretty fast mine broke and contractions started right after and I was at 7 cm within 2 hours

@lunabuena, I know how you feel about laboring and then having a csection! Went through that twice its really exhausting got real close to getting a transfusion too they were even preparing the blood but decided not to.

@lunabuena, that must have been so scary! Yeah my first half was a breeze. It was the second half that hurt like all hell because it went so fast!

Yeah when I got to the hospital I was 5cm -_- I was in a lot of pain.. For got to mention everyone is different. why I wish you to have a better labor then me.. Cause I went through 37 hours of labor to getting a c section and lost a lot of blood which made me pass out when I heard my baby girl cry to getting 2 blood transfusions later on. Everyone labor story is different.

@lilyandkaidynsmommy, I am timing them like crazy have been for 3 1/2 hours and I only live a few minutes from the hospital so I hope when it hits that point and I go in it'll be the real thing I don't wanna be sent home lol or maybe if things are progressing that they will induce me since my doctor is out of town and I'm about to be 40 weeks and 5 days as of midnight!

Looks like you're getting close if they're between 3-5 min apart for an hour id go that's what my doctor told me to do

@lunabuena, thanks girl! I'm bouncing on my ball to help things, some are more intense than others but slowly moving closer together! @mommabird yeah mine are in between some are barely noticeable some are more mild

I had no pain till I got to 6 cm so everyone is different!

Well I did share something like I was bleeding alittle bit and it freaked me out. But I was having period cramps. Then they got strong a few hours later and could tell those was contractions. But congrats! I went through 37 hours of labor hope you have less and have better luck then me!

When I had contracts I didn't have time to share it lol. Contraction are the most horrible pain I ever went through. I didn't want to talk to anyone.. I wanted to be left alone.
