girl that sounds rough @klanc919

yeah. and 2 days before that I had a appt with my ob who couldn't find my cervix to save my life. and discussed about setting an induction date the following week .
needless to say. I was discharged the day before my following appt. (I had to stay 3 days due to water being broken 24 hours)

Oh wow @klanc919

you may or may not have to have your water broken. it may break on its own. mine did before I had any contractions I hadn't even dilated only 70% thinned.

birthing ball. evening primrose oil,

I'm honestly really scared already...

You will know its time when your body goes into labor on its own. Water breaking has little to do with it, lot of time they'll break it for u in the hospital after youve been contracting and dilating.

well I was in back Labor and I lost my mucus plug but it was more blood than suppose to be so I went into labor and delivery and they put me on the machines and they were about to send me home but I had a contraction that was off the chart and caused babys heart rate to drop and because of that they induced me I was too small and he wouldn't go farther than my pelvic bone and because of that I didn't dilate past a 4 for two days on pitocin and I had a emergency c section, I was 38 weeks and 4 days. @elenasmommmy but when I was in the hospital they broke my water and it was all blood because when he was stuck he was tearing me from the inside and causing a lot of bleeding and I'm not trying to scare you I'm sorry

@jujulove13, @elenasmommmy I second that... Castor oil will ONLY bring on contractions but will NOT help you dilate which is horrible and stressful to the baby and to you also. It acts as a laxative. I agree with @jujulove13

thank yall very very helpful. FTM with very little knowledge lol

do not use castor oil

@elenasmommmy, there is a very small percentage of women who's water breaks before going into active labor... Once active labor has started, which is 4cm and up,it will help your water break with some women or they will break it for you. That's what she means when she says that... It does not always happen like we see on tv where the water breaks first and then labor starts

try lots of walking and sex squatting also helped me I actually walked in the morning afternoon and night and went into labor 2 days later :) but please do not try castor oil it is very dangerous for baby someone I knew did that and her baby swallowed poop and died doctors say it from the castor oil it's horrible thing to do try all natural things@elenasmommmy

so how did you know it was time? @nicholefrank

my water never broke either, not everyone's water breaks on its own @elenasmommmy

castor oil can be dangerous.

you mix it with orange juice, like 4 table spoons and its a natural laxative, I used it and it worked. either causes the poops or contractions or both. @elenasmommmy

well she's like yea well probably have to break your water :/ @tattoookimama

what's castor oil. like I just drink it? @nicholefrank ni

it's not time just yet

walking, sex, squats, castor oil (but also causes the poops), swimming.

I will try all that. but my doctor says she doesn't think my water will break what does that mean? @tattoookimama

sex, gallop walking bouncing fresh pineapple
