That's what my midwife had me do with Holley, and I did with Brin too! Don't know if you heard or not but we are expecting no.3 now, and I plan on starting the tea at 36 weeks this time! Good luck! I feel your pain!Derek and Tara Larsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17722176547863440410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5983042876808293951.post-78006738169647881602008-12-24T09:09:00.000-08:002008-12-24T09:09:00.000-08:00Lily is classic Jen!

You don't need Lily's, too. :) Jenn, I'm so impressed with how you're still doing so much to make this a great Christmas for everyone else, even when you're so miserable!! And it's nice to know what there is to look forward to in the near future for me--good luck! Hope the baby comes soon! :)Jewelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18255813826990118257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5983042876808293951.post-13266613293435110162008-12-23T08:20:00.000-08:002008-12-23T08:20:00.000-08:00P.S.My exclamation of "I want one" after saying I ...P.S.<BR/><BR/>My exclamation of "I want one" after saying I love Lily's personality did not mean that I want a personality, although that's how it sounded.

Totally brought me back to the days, "Joo don know meh. Here, hold my chil'."<BR/><BR/>Next, I luh-luh-love Lily's personality. I want one! <BR/><BR/>But then, thanks for the graphic women talk and frankness about your misery. It makes me realize that I can, in fact, wait for one.<BR/><BR/>Loooove you!Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15711233072459741941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5983042876808293951.post-50219105718592448862008-12-23T07:18:00.000-08:002008-12-23T07:18:00.000-08:00Amazing!

Just know that I wish you all the best with that "well woman" stuff. I wish you to be a well woman. How's that.

I have a good friend that is a midwife and she told me to use Evening Primrose Oil and insert (yes, in your vajayjay lol) two 500mg capsules right before bed to help thin out your cervix and you can start at 36 weeks. I started inserting them the night before I had Nash. I thinned me out over night. I had been having contractions for 3 days every 10 minutes non stop but just wouldn't thin out. I really do think that it is what helped. You can buy it at Wal mart i think, or any organic foods place. Do it before bed though cause it can get messy. Gross I know, but it worked for me. haha. It was a good thing too cause Nash had pooped a few days earlier and needed to come out. :)The Swinson Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17349954471474243599noreply@blogger.com
