I went 2 weeks overdue with my first and had a horrible induced birth that I am desperate to avoid this time round.
I am currently 5 days overdue. I am not going to agree to any sort of induction until 2 weeks overdue...
I know about all the pineapple, raspberry leaf tea, sex etc to get things going, but does any of that actually work?! I had a stretch and sweep yesterday and the midwife said although I'm about 1 cm my cervix is still quite high and she doesn't think I am imminent. :( However, I've been having mild cramping for the last 3 days, and some sharp stabbing pains. I don't remember feeling anything at all when pregnant with my first.
Please can someone make me feel better?! I'm feeling quite down in the dumps right now!
