40w2d

Yup, still preggers. And with no signs of labour approaching, despite some pelvic pressure, but that's nothing new.

My anxiety has been in full swing over the last couple of days. I am definitely doing that thing that my husband says I do: Trying to control everything else around me because I know I can't control when this baby is coming. Worrying about every crazy thing under the sun is exhausting, and it's a full-time job. Ah well, at least it keeps me busy.

Yesterday I decided to try nipple stimulation to get things going. I sat on the couch wearing my nursing bra undone, and tried to manually stimulate my nips while watching yesterday's episode of "Intervention". It must have been quite a weird sight, me fondling myself while watching a documentary on a crack user. I worked my nips as much as I could, until my hands got tired and my breasts felt they were on the verge of getting sore. I don't think it worked.

I don't think there is much I can do to speed things along here. I think I really just have to be patient, even though I'm terrible at it.

Acupuncture and having your membranes stripped...that combo worked for me like a charm. Everything else I tried...not so much. Hang in there! Can't wait to hear the news! :)

I know your frustration well. I too had a stubborn little girl who liked to stay put. 10 days longer than I wanted her to be there. :(

It will happen when it happens. Try not to worry about it. I know, easier said than done. Good luck!
