Do lots of walking! Bouncing on a exercise ball! Things like that will speed up your contractions! Dancing to! Lol I've heard a lot of women have danced there way into labour :)

Thank yall so much.. I forgot what these damn things felt like! Whew.. I get little ones in between my strong ones.  That is not fair. Haha but there mostly every 5 min for at least 1 minute. I'm so excited this pain is like an adrenaline rush bc i want my baby and I know he is coming.

Trust me, you will know! You won't be thinking about nothing but how to get that baby out of you & taking that pain away(: GL!

[SabbaMS]

Good luck hun. Try not to panic, just remind yourself that you'll be holding your sweet little baby soon :)

And I really don't want to be induced.

[KiraBrokeshoulder]

Well I'm 41+1.. I was having contraction after contraction but they backed off a little.  I have to get up in an hour to be at the hospital by 6am to get induced.

When you can't think, speak or breath through contractions. I'm in early labour right now and my contractions are bad but not too the point of unbearable. I can still kind of speak through them. They're not taking my breath away yet.

37 weeks on the dot! :)
