I ate spicy noodles. I gave birth to my second baby at 38 weeks + 5 days 2 months ago.

I don't think that they can induce it, but they do help with cervical ripening or softening ( has been scientifically proven )

Now there are non food ways to help being on labor ( miles circuit, curb walking.... To mention a few )

I went for a long walk

I ate dates every day from about 36 weeks, went on daily walks I had my son at 39w 2 days and the day before I went into labor I was very active and had a nice relaxing bath hope this helps you meet your little one soon!

I did side walk walking. It actually helped put me into labor on my due date. Did it for about a week before labor

Ohmigoodness 🥺🥺🥹❤️❤️❤️

Congratulations mama 🎉

He's absolutely precious 💕

( also, welcome to NC! Just peeked at your profile .... I'm currently in Raleigh, but we'll be moving sometime this year, TBD as of yet exactly where, but probably somewhere else in the Piedmont area )

Day out after c section

Hey,
I had an emergency c section 1 week ago I obviously don't want a day out right now but I have things booked for the Easter holidays so in 2 weeks. I was just wondering if I will be overdoing it if I have a day out then or will I be ok? I would still take it as easy as I could. When did everyone feel good enough to go out?

Period like cramps

Hi
I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and I keep getting period like cramps I thought these were Brixton hicks but I’ve heard they only last 30 seconds ish as this can go on for a good time frame then go away and come back, they aren’t bad enough where I can’t do basic things they just feel like I’m about to get my period I’m jus wondering how normal this is? Baby is still very actively kicking xx

Invited to a chuckie cheese party but I don't have money and don't want to tell my daughter that's why we can't go. Does anyone know how their parties work?

I'm not sure how chuckie cheese parties are. If they give you money to play or not if you're in the party. And then I'm wondering if it's an actual birthday party or if they're just going to chuckie cheese. Some guy in my building told me a couple weeks ago that his son's birthday is today and he's thinking of doing chuckie cheese. They sent an invite but I feel so insecure not being able to afford anything. Like if they don't have food for example. Idk what to do.
