Get this child out of me! April 29, 2006

Hey if you want more pain, then who am I to stand in your way?

Ok by the clock, the baby was due 10 hours and 38 minutes ago. With all of the kicking and sleepless nights that Robin has gone through (She thinks that the baby is going to be an all night raver chick, I of course will have other things to say about that), to say she’s no longer impressed is an understatement. The baby is awake all night long, and kicking to the point where Robin’s ribs feel like they might burst.

She is now starting to consider acupuncture therapy to induce the labour. Apparently this has worked for a few her friends, but I’m skeptical. In the last two weeks I’ve been given advice by several people, some of them have merit, some don’t. Here’s what I’ve been told

    Caster Oil
    Massaging the pressure point of the ankle
    Acupuncture
    Cranberry leaf tea
    Sex
    Tweaking her nipples
    The Full Moon
    The New Moon
    Gin and Tonic
    La Trottaria Food with lots of Garlic
    Red Wine
    Walking

Some of these sound ok, some of them….well….let’s just say that I also don’t believe in Big Foot either.

So, I’m interested in what other labour inducing tales are out there. Go ahead, no matter how crazy it sounds let me know.
