Pregnancy-poll poll Just wondering how long does sperm need to stay in u to help with softening/dialating the cervix? Or what do u Recommend for helping self inducing (nothing drastic like Castor Oil, just natural stuff) Ive been told by my Dr that Im ok to start the process and I dont want to be induced as if my LO isnt born in next week I`ll have to be induced due to size. So no lectures plz

Dh and I had sex at 10pm I just left the sperm in me and went to sleep by 1.30am my mucous plug fell out and 2 am the contractions started!! I don`t know if it really worked or if it was just coincidence but hey its worth a shot!! also my hubby likes telling people that he put me into labor lol!!!

oh yes, you can also google labor inducing accupressure points and try that out, or pay for accupuncture

evening prime rose oil?

bee2bee-so funny! Sperm does help with the softening, but what`s even better is sperm + orgasm, as that could jump start contractions. You could get some evening primrose oil gel tabs and insert vaginally (they`ll disolve) and also help with the softening. Get a heating pad or bag of HOT water and put it on your breasts. Nipple stimulation. (Night before I went into labor I sat on the couch with a bag of hot water on 1 breast and do nipple stimulation on the other, then switch) ummmmmmmmm, what else....this may sound totally stupid but I tried EVERYTHING @ 3 days overdue and went into labor that night so I don`t know if it was coincidence or not. Curb walking- find a curb and put 1 foot on top and 1 in the gutter... walk down the street like that and then turn around and switch feet. Looks and feels totally stupid, but hey, what can it hurt? LOL! Good luck hun!

  1. What do you think is better (or worse) for kids? TV or video games?
  2. I`m interesed in getting an innotab for my kids. Are the extra downloads pricey? How is the product as a whole?
  3. Thought they were fixing the problem with the profiles? Mine is now starting to disappear and most of my friends profiles are gone. Is it getting fixed or what because its more than a joke at the moment. Maybe its the ads causing the problems because its the only thing that seems to stay when the profiles disappear.
  4. If you had a `favourable` cervix (started to dilate and soft) did a membrane sweep work for you?
  5. Should I buy my sister a Belly Bandit for her shower? She said that is what she wanted when I asked. I just have a hard time spending that much money on some thing she might niot like. Especially because it was me who put the dumb :) idea in her head!! I bought and used one for three out of my four and loved it...but is it for everyone? Or should I throw down the money to something more practical?
  6. Are your children exposed to two hours or less of TV per day? (This includes when your shows are on and they are awake and around at the same time in the same room)


  7. Just finished making a birthday cake for the first time from our baby girl for her daddys bday tomorrow :o)
  8. Extension of last Valentine question..I should clarify that we are having V-day dinner tomorrow alone but still just the fact that he bought our gifts at the same time at the same place bugs the s-it out of me. He knows I like plants and I`m pretty sure he went to a nice nursey and got me one but the fact is he told me he got his mom a small little plant. OMG I fee like I total b-tch but I feel like telling him I know what he probably got me and I do not want anything that you are giving your mom!! But then he wopuld know I snooped and saw where he went on our checking account.
  9. O.k I know this is a off the wall question..Is it weird and selfish of me to be annoyed that my husband has is giving his mom a Vanetine gift and card tonight when she comes over and wants to give me mine too today? I know I`m probably being sensitive and I feel bad that I made the comment `if you give me the same thing as your mom I`m gonna cry`. He said I should`nt ruin the surprise and I told him I was sorry but I just wanted our Valentines seperate because everything includes his family and it`s a day for lovers. Am I....
