Guest The Phoenix Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Ah, pregnancy sex. I remember it well. Sense of humour essential!It definitely works though. I heard Adam needs a sense of humour and a deal of patience in any event. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saints1884 Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 I'll trust you on that one Christ, i'd be too scared of the baird to have sex if the girl was due in a few days, what if the boab hit the baby? Or started going at it and the water breaks or something I'm sure it couldn't touch the baby,let alone be long enough to reach it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or started going at it and the water breaks or something I think we did it twice in the 8 months I was pregnant, I just couldn't get away from that issue! I know it's impossible but it just felt wrong and put me right off! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HGG Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Speaking about a plastic doll reminded me of the "Nurse" from psychoville on BBC 2. Thing is, I turned the laptop off and turned over to find another "baby" lying on the other side of me. Children! Eviction from the Big Mother house has been booked for the evening of the 7th of August (meaning I'll likely give birth on the 8th) but fingers crossed it doesn't come to that! You've loads of time before then. Sex can apparently help by releasing a hormone called oxytocin, which can help start contractions. Also, semen contains prostaglandins, which will help soften the cervix and prostoglandin gel is often what is used to start labour when you're induced. I think... That's my understanding of it too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toma_BullyWee Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 ANYWAY....Eviction from the Big Mother house has been booked for the evening of the 7th of August (meaning I'll likely give birth on the 8th) but fingers crossed it doesn't come to that! I thought you were squeezing it out today? I really need to keep up. To be crowned (punnage, huh?) with the delightful sight of a bearded excitable wee guy peeking through the blinds of the window of the delivery room to get a glimpse of delivery clunge! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisa Cuddy Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Can you tell I've read all my books? I just had a show! Hope this means things will kick off soon! Never had one with Charlie, but with both Robert and Ashley had one within 48 hours of labour. I'm all smiley now because I'm all excited! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayrgirl Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Can you tell I've read all my books? I just had a show! Hope this means things will kick off soon! I had a show 3 weeks before Cal was born Different for everyone though. It's a good sign when the plug from the cervix goes. Means that your cervix is softening and therefore something is happening. Could still be a while though. Hopefully days rather than weeks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An Sionnach Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Aye, awra best Debs. Ignore the mad Pagan tit. Hoy! Best wishes from whatever belief system at a time like this can be a source of comfort. I know Reina will accept it in the spirit it's intended - one of love and happiness that a new life is about to be brought into this world and enrich a lovely young couple's relationship with a blesséd gift of new life. Best of luck, just had my wife crying here for no reason at all. Finding this dam to hard. Be strong Graham. She needs your support right now and my thoughts are with you! It'll work out fine buddy! Reach into your inner self and trust in yourself and your lady! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
