WE ARE HAVING A BABY TODAY ππ I HAD MIDWIVES BREW TO JUMPSTART LABOR
So yesterday I walked until I felt like I needed to stop (about 2 miles)! After that I came home to make dinner and made "Midwives Brew" around 8 PM:
2 tbls Almond butter
2 tbls Castor oil
250 ml lemon verbena tea
300 ml apricot nectar
Blended until smooth
& over ice!
I drank my brew and started having contractions at 10pm, after my shower. I was able to fall asleep but woke up every hour bc of contractions. Finally at 2:30, the contractions were too intense to sleep through. I had false labor a couple days ago so I chilled until I felt the contractions get stronger at 4:30, then we headed to the hospital! It's now noon, but I am in labor waiting to have our girl.
I did get the ok from my doctor to try castor Oil, as long as I didn't take more than 2 tbsp a day. The recipe is awesome bc it doesn't make you go poop π I know it help jump start my labor as I have tried everything! I wanted to jump start my labor bc my doctor scheduled to induce me next week bc I have liver issues. Just sharing my story!
I'm so excited to meet my baby πΆπ½!!!!!
