So... anyone got any good ideas about going into labor? My sister said galloping, curb walking (one foot on the curb and one on the street), and the exercise ball should help. I did some curb walking, which, p.s.- looks super cool. I also galloped around the house, which, p.p.s.- looks even cooler, but at least Leo was the only witness. I've decided it's not the actual galloping that helps, it's the laughter that accompanies. And if that's the case, then I'm just going to watch as much Ellen as possible. Have y'all watched her lately? She's really funny.
Tomorrow, I think I'm going to do a couple laps around the neighborhood and see if anything happens. And by laps, I mean waddle slowly. If I walk too quickly, it tends to make bladder control more difficult. Yep, I'm just laying it all out there. No shame.
Y'all are probably really ready for me to have this kid, so I will stop sharing so much information.

Haha DON'T gallop in front of people, and DON'T ever publish that I suggested that! (unless it works:)).
Do you have a breast pump? I know this sounds weird but if you do, pump! You can even look it up online, they say it helps and I did it. And even though I went in to get induced, but when I went it I went from a 2 to a 4! And the only thing different that I did was breast pump.
I tried everything in the book to induce labor and nothing! Everyone is different though, so maybe one of these odd activities will help you. Can't wait to see your little bundle!
:) :) :) What can I say:) :) :0
Went through this 7 times!! I know I'm insane!!!!! I took Castor Oil on my first. Yes it worked, gave me the runs, but hey he came. From that point on I just waited until each one was ready, because I was never ready to go through labor again.(even though my labors were pretty easy) He is driving you crazy...like he will for the rest of your life! A good crazy though! Enjoy Ellen...you deserve it!
ive heard castor oil works wonders.. for some people. but through the conversations ive had, i realized its not the actual drinking of the oil that works, its the fact that it makes you have bathroom issues, which in turn, induces contractions haha.. my sister says you dont have to drink it straight, just mix it with some orange juice. gross i know, but if you get desperate....... lol.
