The first baby born in the new year gets a bunch of neat free stuff froma bunch of companies in my town I really hope I can get it.. I am guessing there isn't but if there are anyways of inducing that actually work (besides the drugs the doctors give you) i'd be interested in hearing them.. Thanks bye.. Oh and wish me luck on the new years baby Smile

Well before I start giving suggestions, when are you due hun? How is yours and the baby's health now? Its never safe to try and induce labor, however having the baby after the 37th week is ok!

My actual due date is in 3 weeks thats by the ultrasound .. The first due date my doctor gave me was actually jan5th.. I wouldn't try to induce if I wasnt atleast 37 weeks along.. Theres a girl in my class that is due in february and she says shes gonna try to have the new years baby.. I hope she doesnt know that wouldnt be good for her baby.. I'm also gonna talkto my doctor and ask him if its possible for me to go into labour anytime soon. Hope you can suggest something.. Oh and our health is good.. Good bp everytime, good hr everytime and the babies head is down and last doctors appoint I was told its getting lower.. But hasnt droppped yet.. Smile thanks bye:)
