The last 9 months brought us many changes - I quit my corporate job at Zimmer, got real estate license, have been selling homes like crazy, my sister got pregnant again, my brother finally got his permanent residency in Canada, etc, etc, etc...and now the biggest change is about to happen (hopefully today).
However, I have a feeling baby B will not be joining us today. I still have not had any contractions and I feel like she's too high. Our next doctor's appointment is this Friday, which is 2 days overdue. I guess at that time we start discussing possibilities of inducing the labor...I'll try to keep everyone posted.
I'm open to any suggestions on how to naturally induce my labor!

hi Oxana, I´ve been 10 days overdue, I refused to go earlier to the hospital to induce labor, because I wanted it all naturally. So i tried some natural stuff at home to induce labor, but nothing worked out. Then finally I went to the hospital and you won´t believe it, but I stayed there for one f*** week, had 8 attempts but it never worked. It was kinda stressful and sometimes sad for me. So at the end they found out that my due-date was probably wrong, it might be too early yet. Still they wanted to keep me in and work on...So I´m glad I already went to the hospital later than expected...can´t imagine what more stress it would have been for the baby too. So anyway with the 9th attempt it worked out with a natural method that the midwife did with her fingers.By then everything went naturally and normal!! from this experience I know that I won´t do it again like that, I will just wait a little more at home (1-2weeks) and go to hospital when I´m getting labor. ;)
I just want to encourage you to listen to your mother-feelings, because that´s the best! You´ll know what to do, not the docs (who are sometimes a little too quick with everything...following their system of statistics etc.)! Wish you all the best for your birth!!
bye Caro
