[Done at 3]

My friend suggested that with ds1 whose head was engaged for what seemed like forever and I could hardly move! I didn't see the need to suffer through feeling sick and instead just sat on the toilet and replicated what the muscles do in a diarrhea incident, KWIM and ...pop, broke my water! It was my best delivery by far since no contractions had started and they gave me an epidural at 4cm, I slept for a few hours and out he came! It was fabulous! I'd just try that before taking anything. Just a few minutes of strained pushes was all it took.
