Anxiously awaiting
I’m 39 weeks and 4 days pregnant, this is my first pregnancy, and I’m so anxious to meet my baby boy! I expected him to be 1-2 weeks early due to how he has been measuring this whole time and me not having my exact last period before getting pregnant .. but here we are , still waiting . I started harvesting colostrum as of yesterday and started drinking raspberry leaf tea, crossing my fingers it will help to move him along! I can say I’m having a lot more contractions and feel like it’s helping ! I read that pumping for colostrum before babies arrival helps to start contractions, is great to store, and helps prepare breast for feeding with the baby and lower the pain later. If he does not make his debut by 15 th then my OBGYN will be doing a NST and if still nothing , then the 21st will be induced in the evening, not by choice but by doctor recommendation. Is there any tricks or tips you ladies have used to successfully get the baby moving along, safely? I really don’t want to have to stress the baby or induce if possible..
