Yeah. Cat position illustrative of my current mood!
In other examples of slightly bonkers things I’m doing every day to encourage Baby Girl to make the short journey into my arms:
-drinking 3 cups of strong raspberry leaf tea
-eating 3 medjoul dates (or 6 smaller ones). Impressed to find there is loads of scientific evidence behind this one!
-putting chilli on all my other food
-bouncing and rocking on my birthing ball like a demented weeble
-short routine of Daisy Birthing yoga-based exercises
-walking up the stairs sideways like a crab
-standing or sitting up straight as much as possible to encourage downward movement!
-forbidding myself from slouching on the sofa. I miss the sofa.
-100 squats
-walking for about an hour
-sniffing aromatherapy oil blend designed for labour
-using acupressure points designed to trigger labour
-rocking and rotating my hips at every opportunity. Like a sexy pregnant 1970s disco diva, I like to think. Or a whale gyrating.
Plus a couple of others I’m not going to mention on here because we like to keep it PG 😉
Nobody can say I don’t go all-in when I want something in life 😂
We can do this!
