I had my beautiful boy at 38+4 weeks. Home water birth as planned and I was able to catch him as he came out! It was THE most beautiful experience I have ever had. He's number three for me so I attribute the earliness to my body just being ready faster. Good luck mommas! Labor is just a head game. I wasn't able to get through transition and push til I accepted the pain and let it wash over me. Things happened fast after they broke my water at 8cm. 4 minutes of pushing and my 7lb 10oz baby boy was born! I hope you all have smooth labors!
Things that definitely sped up things for me? EPO orally and vaginally, I upped the dose when I was in early labour, nipple simulation (totally kick started active labor) and a Chiro adjustment to loosen the ligaments around the uterus (baby dropped deep in my pelvis within an hour or so of my adjustment).
