Can someone please tell me if this is normal!? I'm 38w 2d pregnant and I've read that raspberry leaf tea and orgasms are supposed to start up uterus contractions but I have yet to feel ANYTHING! I'm so frusterated. I'm just so ready to give birth already but nothing's working. Is there anyone else who hasn't felt contractions after doing either of these things?
Nipple stimulation helps jump start uterus contractions....I experienced this the past two days....I was wiping my nipples Bc of the leaking milk but then I kept wiping Bc it kept coming out and i guess it stimulated them so that night I had like 20 Braxton hicks contractions. It was soo weird....so get stimulating the nipples girl and thank me later loll or at least try it and see how it goes.....
Nope, the tea just strengthens the uterus and makes you have more effective contractions during labor and helps you heal faster after labor
I'm 39 weeks and haven't felt not 1 contraction and my belly still sits up high I'm sure I'll still be pregnant on the 18th 😞
I heard the same things about the tea, that it helps to start labor
When I we being induced I wasn't feeling most of the contractions at first, and my friend was the same way. They maybe small ones for right now
Really? Grrr, alright, I just read a lot of things about women feeling contractions after drinking a cup, and I've been drinking 4 cups a day and felt nothing!
I think the tea just strengthens your uterus. it doesn't help get labor going.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...

Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
