Hi All,

I am 41 weeks today and so fed up. Was in hospital for most of this week for dehydration because I had been suffering with vertigo which made me very sick. Am now fully hydrated again....hospital were supposed to be inducing me while I was there due to big baby but I got sent home due to lack of space. I don't really want an induction or a c section (which are the 2 things I have been offered because they are concerned about how big baby is) but I have limited time due to having an appointment to discuss these options again on Monday.

I need to get things moving before Monday!! Any advice, tips???

Thanks!!!!

Lots of fresh pineapple, curry, raspberry leaf tea! And try doing some star jumps (I tried those at 39 weeks - was interesting...) and having sex - I'm not sure of any other tips and am not convinced they do a lot, but it always feels better to be at least trying something! Good luck!! (Ds did come at 39+3, so you never know..)
