I know baby will come when they're ready...
I was so excited last weekend, I had show, some pretty painful backache & BH. I thought my baby was ready to meet us!
No such luck, but now I'm getting ridiculously impatient, because it all seemed to be starting!
My friend did a 'Labour dance' waters broke next day, baby arrived next day!
I know it's all coincidence, but wishful thinking, does anyone swear by anything?
I have tried the dance, bounced for hours on my yoga ball, walks, pineapple, sex...
Think he's stuck!
