I feel sick

I just ate half a bag of licorice sticks I'm really trying to get this baby out! But I don't think it's working I love licorice but not this much ICK And I'm sure it will make me constipated since it has Molasses in it which is high in iron.
Oh and I'm drinking the red raspberry leaf tea too. I guess I can drink as much of that as I want since it is Caffeine free? It says 3-4 cups a day. But there is no caffeine in it so it should be ok right?

I have tonight and tomorrow to get this baby out otherwise she'll have to stay in for another 5 days until next weekend!

I do hope that it all works out as you want it to. Maybe our Lord will see fit to do that. Be careful!

I'm not really sure about the raspberry leaf tea, but I am praying that your little one will make her entrance soon! And Yes, please be careful!
Luv ya hun!

i hope she comes sooner rather than later.
Are you past your due date now?

I've run out of licorice so I won't be eating anymore of that... I feel fine... it was just from eating so much... like eating candy LOL I only had the one packet over two days.
Now I'll just stick to the red raspberry leaf tea which doesn't seem to be doing anything either... oh well
I told Paul we are going for a LONG walk today LOL

My due date is today

Well, they even have trouble sometimes getting labour to start with drips and gels so one wonders about the merits of these "remedies".

Don't worry hon, it will be over before you know it.

Praying all goes well my friend

Yeah but they had no trouble with me LOL They induced me last time at 5pm and by 7pm I was having mild contractions and Abby was born at 4:34am the next morning. It all happened very fast. I just wish they would go ahead and induce me right now
We went to visit my parents yesterday afternoon and I burst into tears because I want baby to come out NOW LOL I don't care about the pains I'm having... I think I'm getting used to them... but I just want to see my baby girl KWIM? I'm all excited and every day that it doesn't happen I get depressed and now all I think is "I'm not going to go into labour naturally, they will have to induce me again". I know my due date was only yesterday but I am not showing any signs that labour is going to happen soon. And both my mum and I both don't think I've dropped fully yet. I'm probably only Station 1 still.

Thanks everyone. I'm just sick of being told by my mother and Paul that it would be better "for them" if I deliver mid September. Well do I care what's best for them? Paul wants to get his containers at work done before he goes on his weeks holiday. What does it matter if he is not there to do that? If he's on holiday then it's someone elses job end of story. Who cares.
And my mum said if I go into labour over the next week or so that she won't be able to come home and look after Abby during the day (she works fulltime) because she has too much to do at work. What? She can't come home to take care of her grandchild when her daughter is in labour? So then we have to take Abby with us and she will have to be in the delivery room with us. We don't have anyone else to take care of her. My dad said to phone him but he won't change diapers so what is he going to do when she has a dirty diaper and needs changing?
Honestly, I thought my mum would just come home from work. Obviously this isn't important enough for her or her boss.
So I have to go two weeks overdue again to suit her and Paul.

Really? For some reason I thought it was the other way around...
Well I hope it happens soon.

Renee, I'm praying for you! Those last few weeks just seem longer than the rest of the pregnancy put together, don't they? And now that you've hit 40 weeks, I'm sure you're more than anxious for this little one to make her appearance!

Hopefully when the time comes, your mum will become so excited, she'll tell work they'll just have to do without her for a while, her grandbaby is being born
