I'm only 31 weeks, and this is my first child! I'm not planning on having her early or anything but I am planning on having an Unmedicated birth and I am hoping to not have to be induced. Is there anything I can do to start my labor when it gets closer to my due date? When should I start trying to bring labor on?
Should I let my x know when labor starts
Birth Plan Rant I used to be all about getting an epidural, but after research and thinking about it more I want to have an unmedicated birth (this is my first baby). What annoys me is when I say that I'm going to TRY my hardest to have a natural and unmedicated birth people always feel the need to say that I'm crazy or that I'm going to change my mind when I get in that position. Or that epidurals are the best. I do realize that plans change, but why can't people be supportive and encouraging?
I have an appt to check my baby's growth and check my cervix today. I'm at risk for preterm labor and was wondering when they check my cervix through ultrasound if they can see if I'm dilated or anything like that?
I'm so confused if I am having a chemical pregnancy is there anything that I can do?

Since you're in your third trimester you should start drinking third trimester tea and taking an evening primrose supplement. I am 38 weeks currently so can't yet speak to if they work to help make labor easier but I have heard good things :)

it doesn't hurt, just uncomfortable. its the same when they check for dialation, just have to stick their figure far up there.

@kelseys, thank you! Does having your membranes swept hurt? I've heard some say yes and other say no

best thing to do is relax. literally, I know it sounds crazy, but its true relax. When we do stuff, causing our body tension, our baby feels it and doesn't want to come, but when our body is relaxed, then our baby thinks its a good time to come out. tension works against the body. I didn't try anything besides going to work which was retail (cashier), walking to and from work which was a few blocks, and that was it, my son came on his own and fast a few days before my due date. with my first I did need my membrane swept, which you can ask your doctor to do, and helps bring labor within a day or two.
