My advice to women due soon.. Don't strain yourself trying to kick start labor. I did everything I could for weeks on end and got nowhere with it. Sleep, rest, enjoy the things you enjoy, spend time with friends or family, just be happy and stress free. Don't spend all your time trying to do home remedies to induce yourself. Your baby will come when it's ready. I tried every method multiple times and every time I was disappointed in not seeing my son coming. Now, I've decided to just relax, be at peace, work on homework and enjoy time with my family and dogs and wait for my son's arrival. It feels much better than always being frustrated.

Exactly. I go for small walks now, take a bath once in awhile, and sit on my yoga ball at night. But the stress is not worth it. Your baby feels it and that may also cause them to not want to come out. You've shared almost a 10 month bond with that baby. I hated pregnancy so much, but I've enjoyed this time with my lovely little boy. No one could touch my baby but me, sounds selfish. But I loved not having to share my baby with anyone. It's a special type of bond. I came into pregnancy extremely depressed and this baby, he's changed my life. My due date is Tuesday and then induction will be talk about. I hope he comes on his own. But we will do what's best for him. @kindtrahan @hishappymommy Either way I'm so excited to hold my baby, when he's good and ready.

I've been running myself exhausted with walking and exercising smh I try to do at least a mile once a week and the next day I'm so sore I can hardly move smh so I've decided to just stop I have less than 7 days and waking up pregnant isn't as bad as I'm making it out to be lol just have to be patient with him and be happy whether he comes naturally or by induction ☺

Walking is good. It helps clear my head and I always go out to get the mail and walk around with my dogs. It's good to get fresh air. But forcing so much is not worth it. Your baby knows you're in stress and knows you're upset. It's better to just be at peace. Baby will come when they want. It's their decision, not ours. @hishappymommy

thanks, i needed this also . i've came to conclusion to just stop and let him come on his own. I even visited the library and grabbed a couple books to pass time now that I'm on maternity leave. im gonna still stay on that birthing ball and walk .. DO NOT want to be called lazy (my mother's words)

I tried everything and I ended up crying myself to sleep on so many occasions. I felt like a failure. I thought I was a bad mother. But in reality my son isn't ready. Now that I've finally realized he's going to come on his own, I've become a little happier. Once in a while I take a walk or sit on a yoga ball. But I stopped obsessing over it and I feel so much better. It sucks everyone's having their babies and I'm still waiting. But when the time is right he will be here and I'd rather have my son be healthy than anything else. @kindtrahan
