Pregnancy Info HOME

I have been dialated to a 4 for a week and still no baby. I have walked till my legs are jelly and we have tried the s_x thing, nothing is working my doc told me to do this thing called acupressure, its suppose to throw u in labor in 48 hours, it hasnt. I have also eaten every weird food and caster oil nastiness. Anyone have another suggestion, I am misrible!

Well, you could have your doctor strip your membranes or straight up break your water. My doc just stripped me today, and now I've lost my plug.

I have never tried caster oil but a good friend of mine gave labor with both her children just hours after drinking it. I think it works for some people. I read that it works by causing cramps in the intestines which stimulate the uterus to contract.

I have had 2 stretch and sweeps done, almost 39 weeks but this has been on docs orders! Nothing has happen! Bub isn't ready yet me thinks! Wait wait wait!

My daughter was due date came and went. After 1 day over i thought I would try Raspberry Leaf tea (I think it was to relax you and also to hydrate, more than anything. 4 days over I tried s_x. 5 days over I tried spicy foods - however I had already had a few spaced out contractions. Bub was born the next morning... She just decided she wanted to be born 6 days over... thats just it, they come when they are ready.
