Potentially yes. I’ve done that, gonna watch some TV and then see what happens when I stand up.
If I miss my Sunday dinner I’ll be foaming because I’m starving!
Thank you!

If I miss my Sunday dinner I’ll be foaming because I’m starving!
Thank you!
Hopefully you still get it
I went to triage loads and no one would swab me and told me I was wetting myself
I didn't really know what was meant by sweet smell. But it didn't smell like pee, that's all I can say
it didn't have much smell I don't think. Just knew it didn't smell like peeThey smell so sweet! I put a pad on for an hour and then rang triage after that, at first it was like a little trickle but I felt like I’d weed, then twice I fully felt it down my legs like I was weeing & I was soaked but it depends how much you have apparently. Definitely smells different to wee & it’s should be clear on your pad! xx
It’s funny with waters breaking because you know how they say you won't experience a huge gush that everyone near you will need to worry about getting their shoes wet (like on TV) - that’s exactly how mine came out! Went to bed and felt a weird popping sensation, stood up and it literally just flooded out onto the carpet. Couldn’t mistake it for anything else. And that was hours before my contractions even started!
My mum told me yesterday that when she was 7 months pregnant on my sister she thought she had wet herself but turns out it was her waters going, she never went to the hospital- baby stayed put for 2 more months but mum said it was classed as a “dry birth”
I’ve now interviewed her about her 4 births, really wish I’d done this the first time round. Induced each and every time! Bloody kids, who’d ‘ave ‘em!
Plan of action for this evening - go for a walk, hot nandos, hot bath, then sex 
midwife will give me a sweep at my appt tomorrow but not 100% if I want one just yet might ask her to book me back in at the end of the week when I’m 41 weeks but really hoping I don’t make it to that 
can’t even remember what time my appt is tomorrow because I was just so confident last time I wouldn’t be pregnant anymore I didn’t bother to retain the information 
numpty
Anyone else who’s due feeling anything coming on? And any other tips to induce labour more than welcome although I think I’ve pretty much exhausted the list already

Completely normal
Thankyou. Oh I do like to panic on the days I feel less bloated!
I know its hard and easier said than done, but they'll get fed up of being forced to come out soon and they'll start to come
Keep mobile, stay on your ball. Lots of stair walking if you can & try not to compare yourself to the other ladies around you!
Good luck x
Yes I was going to say, in the interest of balance, I haven’t thrown up once in either of my pregnancies! Have just been very nauseous.Mine hasn’t been anywhere near like this if it makes you feel any better
Thanks @I’mThankyou_ il work on the steps. Very hard not to compare… so daunting
It is! It's horrible watching everyone but you go off and have their babies, but it will be you soon!
Take it minute by minute hour by hour! And you'll soon be being wheeled off to delivery x
If you can, walk as much as you can. Have they said what they'll do after the gels?
I've never had the gels, I think they tend to do them before your due date as the woman in the room with me was 37 weeks and they gave her gels but gave me a 24 hour pessary straight away
So they will examine me again at 10 and then decide whether to break my waters or not. I’m 40 weeks today
I’m due tomorrow and have had no signs 🥲Plan of action for this evening - go for a walk, hot nandos, hot bath, then sex

I’m 2 days over and neither have I but honestly I really don’t think much of that, I never had any with my son, just woke up one morning like yep I’m in labour
and he was here within 12 hours! I do really want to avoid an induction though so I’m hoping one of these stupid old wives tales actually works I think you have to be 3cm for them to break your waters.
Hopefully they'll give you the pessary as I find that has worked almost instantly for me!
