Sounds gross, but an enema may help bring on contractions...

Could you do a DIY jobby? Also means no poop while in labour!

The idea freaks me out tbh! I've never had one!

How do you do this? I'm willing to try anything at this point lol.

But perhaps also call the midwife to check.. I have only 'heard' it helps (on 'One born every minute').

I have to go in on Sunday for ctg so if all else fails I might ask then

Lol I checked the link and decided against it, but I'm just going out of my mind all day thinking when is the baby going to come!?

I'd be careful with the enema - you don't want to lose too much fluid and dehydrate yourself. Maybe safer to eat a spicy curry and let that flush you out!

Atropos - get off BH and go into the bedroom!! BH won't bring on labour

Sarelou - book yourself in for a manicure or facial or something nice...you can almost guarantee you will go into labour an hour before your appointment!
