She ends up eating cabbage soup, which seemed to be disgusting but didn't help her anyway. She still had to wait. My son was born 7 before the due date, so I don't know how it is to wait for labor, but I know, how uncomfy one feels with such a belly. I'm sure your daughter and granddaughter are gonna be fine! Wish you all good luck!!! ~Isis [rq=12259,0,blog][/rq]<a href="http://st-isis.livejournal.com/15497.html" rel="nofollow">A job that gets boring</a> Reminds of an ER episode: Conny Oligario ( a nurse) is very close to her due date and she’s very uncomfortable, so everyone in the ER has some ideas how she could induce labor.

Cuz that is the impression I got from your post. Yes, in past history many "abortion" treatments were tried to start labor. They are not usually the safest or most recommended way to go. As for learning to strip your own membranes on the internet!!, No thanks, I'd pass on that one. just my humble honest opinion. Can't wait to see the baby, but it'll come in it's own due time, really. :) Tell her to stay hydrated, put her feet up as much as possible, and rest when she can. In my experience doing the things you feel driven to do or eating foods you crave to eat at this stage are the best ways to get to the goal! :D So when you say it tends to induce labor because “the body naturally cleanses itself”, you mean like trying to evict the baby, like in a miscarriage?!!

While i was in highschool (we won't say how long ago) there was a home for unwed mothers (have to give you an idea there of how long ago). Some of the girls came to the same high school. They had this running joke about who would go into labor next or first the days that one of the meals served was grilled cheese sandwiches and cream of tomato soup. Evidently every time that was served someone in the home went into labor. Fast forward a few years i was still 6 weeks away from my due date, happened to have said grilled cheese sandwich and tomatoe soup for lunch, my water broke that night. 4 years later with second child, same thing had the soup and sandwiches for dinner, was in labor the following morning. Not sure if it was just the thoughts of it that caused it for me or was just a freaky coinceidence but may be worth a try.
