Any May mommies who are just waiting?

I'm 37 weeks and my baby weighs 7lbs and 9oz already.. My dr tells me that I'm on the waiting game.. I might give birth next week or maybe this weekend... I can't wait to hold my baby boy!

Another tip-- go loose during contractions. When they're painful it's natural to tense up but that makes them less effective. I have my boyfriend remind me to turn to jelly so my uterus and baby have room to do their thing

@ dreamamama go to spinning babies. Com! Lots of great tips I love it. There are also some yoga poses that can help. I'm 37 weeks and impatiently waiting too. I'm in so much pain in my pelvic region that yesterday I couldn't left my legs to get in bed. Lots of contractions but not painful enough. Lost my mucous plug and she's dropped but I'm not all that hopeful lol
