Well, cleaning the house will not induce labor...

Well, cleaning the house will not induce labor...

I got up at 7 am, did four loads of laundry and cleaned the entire apartment from top to bottom. I dusted moldings on my hands and knees, cleared everything out from under the bed and swept up all the dust balls - I even washed the kitchen cabinets inside and out. And I am still pregnant...

What should I do tomorrow

Still here... exactly 39 weeks today. Planning on eating some really SPICY chinese food for lunch. Maybe that will work. Going to the gym - walking on the treadmill for 2 miles, doing leg extensions and lunges hasn't worked either.

Maybe I just need to chill out...

Did they move your due date up? I saw you were listed as due 2/15. If you posted that, Im sorry, Im missed it.


There's always the eggplant...

There's a restaurant in Atlanta called Scalini's that serves an Eggplant Parmagiana dish that supposedly induces labor in pregnant women. I got the recipe and made it when I was 5 days overdue. I put them in the oven to bake around 4:30pm and went into the shower. I step out of the shower and MY WATER BREAKS!! So I can attest to the fact that there is some magic in the eggplant (and the recipe is delicious BTW)

If you want the recipe, let me know and I will dig it up.


Hang in there...I found the waiting at the very end the hardest part.
