Princesslo- I understand you too! I'm basically in the same boat! I'm 38+3, and exactly 4 weeks ago had to get a shot to stop my contractions. Then I had 1-2 days out of each week after that where I would have pretty strong contractions, but they would never stay long enough to be admitted! And this week.. I've been having contractions almost all the time about 10 minutes apart since Friday of last week. Went to l&d on Sunday, and I was still only dialated to a 1 and 70% thinned. Today, I'm a "2....ish" and still having contractions!

Hmm...
So....if you have pure cinnemon in a bottle. (Seasoning jar thingy) why wouldnt be the same as cinnemon sticks? Is it because theres more cinnemon in the sticks? Im asking because we dont have a car but i have cinnmon tea and cinnemon here just not the sticks! Lol i may just try it anyway, this made me crave cinnemon tea.
