Lots of caffeine, an ephedrine, and a good salty meal for dinner the night before followed by a really salty breakfast.
If you were a dood I'd tell you to hop on some dbol, but that wouldn't be a good idea in your case.

Hold your breath and think bad, stressful thoughts. Put pressure on your lungs when you do this by pushing out.
You can also do it by relaxing if you have sufficient control over your heartbeat and manipulate your breathing.
Both will only have a temporary effect.

How close are you to your due date?
I had several (due dates that is) LOL but the baby I was carrying was quite large so my doc induced me because he was afraid that if we waited much longer I'd have trouble delivering her. She was 8lbs 15oz with a 14" head circumference so ya, she was a healthy little pot roast with arms and legs.
Alcohol consumption will very quickly and for a short time make your blood pressure shoot sky high. We have a blood pressure cuff LOL to monitor the grump's and it's funny how my REALLY LOW bp shoots up even before I really feel too much of a buzz. However, I do NOT recommend this for a pregnant woman, especially is you are talking about getting induced - bad, bad idea but I was answering your question. LOL
Seriously, when is your date?

Dunno if it's a wive's tale but I'd often heard that the contractions of an orgasm might bring on labor. Wive's tale or not LOL it couldn't hurt.

CindyLou - you gotta admit that was funny.
Oh for Crying Out LOUD ... CINDY, NO! Let nature take its course. You pull a cake out of the oven too soon what happens, huh? Leave that baby alone and don't let doctors give you drugs!
The sex thing isn't a myth. In fact, a lot of sex with orgasms, and make sure hubby plays with your nipples a LOT, that really can help.
Keep drinking the raspberry tea.
BE PATIENT!

I'm going to start marketing nipple clamps for women like cindy who want to hurry up and have their baby.
^^^ No truer words were ever spoken.
Cindy, listen to the voices of those who have trod this path before you, no matter how frigging uncomfortable or bored or impatient you are, ENJOY WHAT LITTLE TIME YOU HAVE LEFT WITHOUT AN INFANT CONTROLLING YOUR LIFE!!!
Seriously. Stop wishing it away. Go treat yourself, go to a spa if you can, or at least get a mani or a pedi. Have a nice dinner with your husband, even if you have to order in.
But since that isn't possible, you can always give custody to the father and head for France.
thanks puddlemonkey for that lil gem
I already orgasm everday, trying to induce labor. Its not working!
Im 37 -38 weeks
I'd settle for a 39 week induction though lol or even an induction on my due date. I do NOT want to go over my due date
he's not doing it right, lemme have a try

Oh, you're gonna be in big trouble!!!!!
Umm, well there's part of your problem. The reason the sex thing helps is because of the prostaglandins in the semen, they get absorbed through the vaginal walls in combination with orgasm.
Have sex Cindy. You won't be able to once you have the baby for a few weeks anyway.
What's your problem?!
nooooooooo
I was at least a week over and my kid was 8 lb. 14 oz at birth. I don't remember it being that big of a deal. A lot of peeing, but other than that
Shit, you aren't even done cooking and you're bitching already!
Shit bro!!! I'm sorry to hear that. Thats scary!
Okay I'll try actual sex. Im bouncing on a birthing ball and drinking raspberry leaf tea and usisng EPO in more places than I wanna say. lol
I am mentally prepared for going until my due date, but Im not sure I can mentally handle going another two weeks after that. Im afraid that I will snap.
I dont actually want to give myself high blood pressure! just give high blood pressure readings, "fake it" if thats possible. My heart is actually doing well with all the extra blood

u ever had spunk in your eyes? I dont think Johnny Jr is gonna appreciate this....
Emotional or physical? Sorry, re-read your posts, got it.Cindy, it's just having a baby. People have been doing this for hundreds of thousands of years. If you don't lighten up you're going to have an ulcer before the kid is 2.
Go be nice to yourself and relax. This is supposed to be a joyful time in your life, not time to stress out. Find an engrossing novel, put your feet up and read. Be a lazy ass.
physical and emotional lol
I think Im just in the thick of it, and when I look back I'll realize how silly I'm being.

I dont know why Im doing this to myself!?
Okay, re-read my previous post I edited it.physical. My pelvis area has a ton of pressure on it, but I have not had one braxton hicks contraction and Im only dilated to a 1. I see the doc once a week and they just said thats her dropping or whatever and that its normal. So I just have to endure it until she comes because Im perfectly healthy and so is she. So I was just hoping not to go late. thats all.
I think Im just in the thick of it, and when I look back I'll realize how silly I'm being.
Stop with the ball bouncing shit, okay? Your joints get really fucking loose when you're getting close to your time, you could be screwing your back up. The baby's moving down, and maybe she's pressing a nerve. Try to get her to move, push a foot or something, sometimes they'll shift. Eat some ice cream, sometimes that will do it.
If that doesn't help, try laying on your back with your legs WAY up, like pile five pillows or more under your knees, you want your legs at a 45 degree angle to your torso (lying on the floor with your lower legs on a chair are perfect but that might not be logistically possible). Raising your legs when you lie down will take the pressure off your lower back and pelvis. Do this several times a day.
I'm so sorry you don't have a chiropractor, but now is not the time to find one. Another good thing to do is link your hands around your husband's neck and just let your knees sag while he supports your weight.
Most importantly, find something to engage your mind! You're thinking too much! You're uncomfortable and the more you think about it the more uncomfortable you'll be.
lolololol
Okay thanks MM. I know that I need to take my focus off the uncomfortable part. I jumped right to how to control gettting this baby out, I really just should have tried some real relaxation stuff, and getting my mind off what feels uncomfortable because thats probably going to be the only thing thats going to work, because unless I actually CAN fake a high blood pressure reading (lol) Im just going to have to wait it out. So I might as well find a way to distract myself in the process.
I can do this.
Thanks for the reality check
lol Im going to look back on this thread and have a good laugh at least. lol
Grab a red pen and punch the nurse in the tits and unplug the machine and write over the screen with the marker elevated BP levels.

Thanks smurfy!
I have confidence in my ability to deal with birth and contractions. I dont have confidence in my state of mind though waiting for this to be over! lol
actually Im not anywhere near as uncomfortable today as I was yesterday?! I took a long bath last night and had some false labor that kept me up most of the night (which I was happy about! yay!) but I woke up fine and feeling less pressure. So I feel good today.

Damn, I thought my oldest was big! LOL Your son has my daughter beat by nearly a pound!
I didn't have an epidural with her either but after a couple hours stuck at 9 cm going out of my mind with pain and being so out of control that I didn't understand English but started speaking in my mother tongue both my ex and the doc BEGGED ME to ask for pain relief. So I had THE BEST shot of demerol EVER... and lo and behold - dialated and ready to push... so high outta my mind I was like, "Huh, what do you mean I have to push this thing out of me now? What ever happened to all the bullshit videos they showed us in the worthless Lamaze classes where the baby *just slid* out?!?!"
LOL it's REALLY funny when I think back on that.
My second I required no medication at all so when I tell you that I felt that baby's head crowning and BEGGED for that episiotomy - I am not kidding here. It was quick, but GEEZE hurt me *this much*.
Third I made it to around 7 cm's (transition when labor REALLY starts to hurt) and when the doc told me that she had NO CLUE how long the pain would last I was like, "Screw this I am woman hear me roar shit. I've already delivered two without an epidural, this ain't the fukkin jungle - HOOK ME UP!" But the epidural failed... You don't want to know.
Fourth time round my doc was awesome... got to 9cm with very *handleable* pain and then as the doc explained to me somehow the baby turned (think square peg fitting through a round hole) and because my oldest was present for the birth the doc didn't want to traumatize the child by seeing her mother in so much pain she couldnt control herself (the only birth were I actually cursed my exhusband). So she hooked me up with an epi at 9cm (unheard of). As soon as I laid back the medication took effect I was relaxed enough where I was no longer fighting my body and I screamed, "BABY IS COMING NOW!"
I barely pushed and my Mari all but slid out. LOL
You'll be fine.
I advise expectant moms to not be rigid about what they expect from their deliveries. There is no shame in asking for pain medication - hell I would ask for it when with my first pang of false labor were I to become pregnant now! LOL. The baby will be fine and so will you.
I am so excited for you.... I feel like I am pregnant all over again (in a very good way). For a mother in my position, that brings much needed comfort and happiness and a sense of hope.
Thank you Ms CindyLou!!

I hope you appreciate the fine work he must have done. It is neither exciting nor exhilarating throwing sutures into a newly ripped assgash.

Oh no darlin... He revamped the whole kit and kaboodle a few years later. We aren't talking a few sutures in the ass and a few in the gash. We are talking cystoceal (sp?) repair. My entire nani is as tight as it was PRE-BABY!
I was the youngest woman in his practise who he had performed the procedure on. (I was 30). Combination of all the kids and wearing a weight-lifting belt during heavy lifting.
I didn't WANT the surgery, but aside from the fact that I nearly bled to death I was sooooooooooo happy that I had it done. And no, I did not have it for cosmetic purposes. My bladder collapsed and put such pressure on the top vaginal wall that it literally would hang out of me. VERY PAINFULL....
But hey, he fixed it and since then my nani's been sooooooper tight.

why would you say that?
Honesly is always the best policy as far as I am concerned. Sex, pregnancy and childbirth - the consequences thereof very valuable information for both men and women.
I was very shocked when I gave birth and find out shit the hard way because NOBODY TOLD ME or they out and out lied.
Talking openly about stuff like this is akin to me telling someone how to treat and upset stomach or a bee sting.

Interesting choice of words from a physician.
It was a cystoceal repair that was medically necessary.

*the dirty details* of genital surgery for all to see? Who exactly to you think you are talking too?
This was a thread where a woman is about to give birth. I posted up hoping to educate her in a way that no one did ME. Since women don't even talk openly about these things I though it would be a good opportunity to educate their men as well.
Ummmm who was the one who made the comment about my *appreciating the sutures of a gash" or some such. I felt the need to clarify because of YOUR misunderstanding. Since YOU are supposed to be a MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL I THOUGHT you could appreciate my addressing YOUR CONFUSION.
Believe you me, I won't be making THAT mistake again.

Hey CindyLou, good luck sweetie and I KNOW patience is the last thing on your mind right now but let nature take it's course. The nipple stimulation will cause braxton hicks but true labor induction is questionable. Sex can lead to labor as well but you need to do it quite a bit.... I think you need the accumulation of sperm every 2-4 hours for 24 hours to equal the equivalent end result of pitocin. Induction is not always the best option since 50% of all inductions end up in c-section anyhow. I am all about drugs in labor.... my favorite pregnancy quote "they do not hand out trophys when you leave the hospital"... do what you've gotta do. I was so impatient with my 2nd child that I had 3 membrane sweeps after 37 weeks.... the third time I even told the doctor "c'mon really dig in there!!!". I think he thought I was a psycho person but it was NOT an ideal pregnancy by any means and I wanted it OVER. It didn't work. Anyways..... good luck!!!!!!
Yes. lol. Im getting an epidural if available and if it works for the second half but they also offered narcotics for the first half so I could still be up and walk around instead of confined to bed - but I dunno.........
Thank you! I will see if my doc will do a sweep at this week's appointment. Social inductions are really popular around here but my particular group of doctors are hippies or something because I am the only person that I know that didnt get to schedule a week 39 or week 40 induction. I dont know one person that I know who went into spontaneous labor but that looks like what Im going to have to do. Thats fine I guess. I just really dont want to go two weeks late or anything crazy.
I have a pretty open mind about my labor which is why I dont really have set way that I want things. I am just going to trust the doctors to do whats best in any situation. If I end up with a c-section, so be it. I am getting an epidural if it all works out!! I wouldnt go through the whole labor without pain meds!! No way! I wouldnt get a tooth pulled without pain meds either. I just thinking I coul?d get through the first half without pain meds?
his would actually induce he valsalva maneuver. 'Bearing down' in his fashion triggers that vagus nerve causing an interthoracic pressure increase that tells your brain to DROP your systolic blood pressure thus dropping your heart rate.
This is why you see a lot of heart attacks or cardiac events for that matter occur on the shitter. People will bear down and drop their heart rates to the point of rhythm conversion.
what is the difference between systolic and "the other" number?
Systolic(top number) is what's looked at as more important, than comes the mean arterial pressure. The systolic measures the intravascular pressure while your heart is contracting while the diastolic measures the pressure while the heart is resting and allowing the ventricles to fill back up with blood.

Many doctors will allow induction at 39 weeks for a medical condition, most doctors at 40 weeks and the remainder wait until 42 weeks.... no woman should go past 42 weeks of pregnancy. I do know in certain areas doctors will allow 37+ week inductions for mere convenience and in my opinion I just don't like it.... all pregnancies are an estimate so a 37 week induction could be a 36 week induction.... you know? Every minute a baby is in the womb is beneficial.
I think that's awesome that you're going in with an open mind! It's the best way to go. I know SO MANY women who are like "I'm going natural all the way" and end up getting pain meds and then beat themselves up over it. Delivering two 9 1/2 lb babies, in my experience... I PREFERRED the c-section. The method of getting there scared me a bit but that's not really anyone here's need to know, LOL. I just loved how fast it was and the healing was easier for me then 4th degree tearing, eh. Everyone is entitled to their opinions No matter how you deliver, you will survive and the experience will be a positive, no matter how negative the actual experience is
