Hello, it's me again!
So, 38 weeks yesterday, severe SPD since 21 weeks, Drs gave me the go ahead from 38 weeks to try 'alternative' methods of kick starting labour.

Been drinking raspberry leaf tea over the weekend, had a session of reflexology yesterday and the practitioner said that all the right acupressure points were tender. (!)
Since late-ish last night, have had period like lower cramps almost constantly, have been up to pee pretty much every 2 hours and just feel a bit 'jittery' like something is about to happen.

Have told husband to be on amber alert just in case, and am feeling quite tearful. Is this wishful thinking or could I be in v early labour? Am a bit scared (blush)

Well done surreyhillsmum - goes to show that everyone is different; I'm glad though that you were one of the lucky 'quick' ones!

Did you go to ESH in Redhill? Asking as I live in the shadow of the north Downs :-)
