helping body prepare for labor?

Question

Anyone plan on doing anything specific to help your body get ready for delivery? I read something today about eating 5-6 dates a day starting at 36 weeks to help soften the uterus. I am interested in other safe methods!

Answer

I've been doing yoga, stretches, kegals, deep breathing and pelvic floor exercises on my birthing ball, and walking.  I'm going to start mediating on my labor, drinking red raspberry leaf tea, rebozo sifting if baby stays breech, and perineal massage at 34 weeks.

Answer

Drinking Raspberry Leaf Tea. It's suppose to help strengthen you uterus for when it's time to deliver. My doctor recommended it to me. I had never heard of it. I ordered organic Raspberry Leaf Tea on Amazon. They had the best deal. Comes in individual tea bags. The tea can be a lil weak, so I don't add as much water when I make it. Usually have a cup before bed since it doesn't have caffeine.

I'm due shortly after thanksgiving and I plan on drinking lots of red berry leaf tea and walking a lot! I'm hoping eating a lot of thanksgiving food then walking and sex the next day will help her come out!

Answer

Raspberry Leaf tea, at least 30 min a day of walking a day, swimming once a week, hypnotherapy, and I plan on starting some stretching/yoga and at 36 weeks I plan on doing oil vaginal stretching. ( sounds weird but I've read a lot of good things about it)

Answer

I drink red raspberry leaf tear daily.

Answer

I've been drinking a cup of Red Raspberry Leaf Tea since around 28 or 29 weeks, I am 30 weeks now. So I will probably up it to 2 to 3 cups a day closer to delivery.

I heard about acupuncture can help. What do you think? But after 36 weeks

Answer

I've been doing yoga. But that's more to help with my back pain than anything. Going to take some birthing classes soon. Looking into this raspberry tea. And I will try to do the Cagle's at least once every day
