Trying to get things going - Wednesday 25th April 2007

I have started to try some of the old wives tales about getting things started with the labour. Yesterday I ate lots of fresh pineapple, which I am told gets things going. Unfortunatley nothing happened yesterday with that. I have found some other natural ways of getting things started that I am going to try;


  • Castor Oil
  • Sex
  • Eating Curry
  • Red Raspberry Leaf Tea
  • Nipple Stimulation
  • Homeopathy
  • Accupuncture
  • Walking
  • Blowing up balloons
  • Bouncing on a Birthing Ball
  • Get a weepy video and have a good cry
  • Wear your best knickers (sods law that your waters will break when wearing them)
  • Sit on the Washing Machine during the washing cycle
  • Foot Massage
  • Bumpy Car Ride

If anyone has any other good ideas then please let me know!

Granny says Lennon will be here on 12th May whatever you take so just let things come naturally. Auntie Marilyn says he will come on 10th May weighing in at 8lbs 7ozs.
