Due date is today!!! (venting)

But I dont think he will be making his entrance today. I haven't had any consistent contractions. I haven't lost my mucus plug. I just want my son in my arms. I hate this wait game. I know it will all pay off but still IT *****!! I cant have sex (not by choice) walking is something my Dr doesn't totally recommend for me. I personally refuse to take that oil stuff because I don't want to poop during labor.

Do you ladies have any suggestions. Other than wait.

Walking helps bring on contractions and really helps in prelabor. Many women go past their due date. In the meantime go out to dinner, make freezer meals, whatever to prepare and get your mind off it

I never took the oil and pooped during labor with my daughter so I don't think that matters but I know how you feel.. he will be here before you know it. Try squats, warm bath,  heard pressure points help too but never tried it. Good luck

Maybe try bouncing on an exercise ball? Or squats? (Make sure you have someone there to support you if need be)
Otherwise try a warm bath. Just relax and it'll happen. :)
