I drank a cup of raspberry tea the evening before I had Alia. I used two tea bags. I woke up to mild contractions that faded so had another cup early afternoon as well as some cinnamon that had been dissolved in warm water to make a tea of sorts. Went to the movies and 3 hours later my water broke. I had been at 0 centimeters at my 39 week check up three days prior.

Topic: RE: may b pregnant and want to be if im not

I got pregnant about 2 1/2 months after surgery.  Totally not planned and I was going in for an IUD when I found out.  So far my pregnancy has been great.  I'm 32 weeks and at a growth scan I had a couple weeks ago she was estimated at 3lbs 13oz.  While this pregnancy has been uneventful it's still a scary situation.  Ideally I would have been 18 months post surgery, but it's too late now.  I would wait so you can have the full benefit of your WLS.

It is not recommended because your body absolutely needs that te to heal. It has gone through a major amount of work and stress in the past 6 months!

That being said, it is possible to have a healthy pregnancy with a lot of dr supervision. I was just over a year out when I became pregnant and had a lot of problems stabilizing blood sugars... That and I gained over 70lbs and could not get more than 30 off after. Then became pregnant again less than 2 years later.

I NEVER got a positive urine test at my Dr. With any of the 4 pregnancies! They always had to do a blood test to confirm. I was told by a nurse that they are not as sensitive as some of the at home test, and that they only show up on some as early as 3 months pregnant.... By then I would hope I would know!

Sounds like it is a positive to me! Congrats!

Evening primrose oil both orally and vaginally.
Black and blue cohosh in warm water drinken like a tea.
Mowing the lawn! Lol worked for my next door neighbor!
Intercourse.
One I do not recommend but works for people that do not mind the poo's during and after delivery- is castrol oil.

Of course they are not a absolute given and will only work if your body is ready! Also Sunday could be your day! With the full moon, it may work in your favor! I hope I do not go into labor myself though. We have the full moon and a thunderstorm predicted, the nurse told me that they see so many babies born when it is storming because the barometric pressure plays a lot of effect!
Good Luck!

Topic: 38 weeks 2 cm dilated

So I am 38 weeks today sitting at 2-2.5 cm dilated no regular contractions just sparatic some every 15-10 minutes apart for a couple hours then they go away they are getting more intense

I am ready to hold him in my arms been doing lots of walking trying any suggestions to get this naturally on the way.  Tried of constantly feeling like crap and being in pain.

If you have any suggestions for natural induction send them my way.  My OB says he can come any day now
