Porukadotzu, at night time before sleep when I have the braxton hicks I will start to time....

The frequent is like 20mins to 30mins~~

And it can continue about 2-3 hours, sometimes I really hope it will continue until next morning...

But weird thing is, the braxton hick normally will go off in the morning~~ :err:

sigh~~

Need to let gynae check the dilate this Thursday again...
hehehe hang on...soon will be the real one..

actual contraction should feel more painful and shorter interval then some labour sign..so keep an eye of it..

My tummy is hardening quite a lot these days. Is that considered as uterine tightening practices?
it's braxton hicks contraction dear...its like early sign of labour contraction, but not the actual one...when it's time you will feel more intense and the contraction interval will be closer and closer..then you might have some labour sign like water break or bloody show..then should go admit to hospital already.

me also waiting2.....

19 oct my edd...but still no sign of labour yet...

Karoru & Hakisumi,

just read at "my baby" magazine bout which tips is true enough to start labour, here i share for you ladies :001_302::

- eating spicy food or anything chocolate or caffeine? doesn't work, it's more likely to cause heartburn.

-long walk? not unless your cervix is already effaced coz walking long distance can start contraction by irritating the uterus but the contraction usually end once we stop moving. (i did this by walking half a day at the zoo last sunday, and during the walk walk i do feel contraction quite often then got scare of giving birth at zoo haha! but then still survive untill we went back home and nothing happen)

- nipple stimulation? It can, coz rubbing niples with fingertips helps release the hormone oxytocin, the natural version of labour inducing druc pitocin which causes contractions to begin, but its a slow process and requires breast stimulation for an hour at a time, 3x a day. Some practitioners only recommend doing this at hospital where you can be monitored, since very strong contractions could affect the baby's heart rate.

- sex? semen contains prostaglandin, natural fatty acid that helps soften and dilate the cervix. That as well as orgasm, can cause uterus to contract, can do only if you're so near to term that your cervix started to efface. (so whaddya waiting for!!:tlaugh:)
