This causes a release of prostaglandins which can help to kick-start labour.} doesn't that sound fun its not around it is in the cervix, it worked for Mason so we tried several times and no labour , after begging my midwife to get this wee Sophie out of me because I couldn't sleep and the daily pains were too much and my emotions were having the best of me ,it was hot and with no air conditioning I was clearly not going to survive, I wanted to have this kid and relax in the hospital for as long as they would let me .<br />Although we tried to keep the girls birthday's apart by at least a week it was fruitless, so I was schedueled to be induced on Mason actual birthday , if they were going to be close than why not the SAME day , so I stayed up June 25th and baked a lovely white cake for my daughter's 3rd birthday because I would be in the hospital having Sophie for her big day , at 1:00 am I laid down on the sofa to sleep or try , and I woke up about 4:00 with a POP , I got to feel my water break which I had always wondered about, problem I was on my white sofa , so I woke by leaping onto the floor so that I would not have to clean my sofa, so Sophie came into the world one day prior to her sisters birthday , guess she wanted her own day , she got it , Mason was born one minute to 11:00am on the 27th with her left hand on her cheek , Sophie was born one minute to 10:00 am the 26th with her right hand on her cheek , one day short of three years of course.<br />That is the story of my two birthday girls.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6vnsggFxqyhIaKUcEx9Qzsk9-WtrTkUnboyDBCcEQ7FaqCqdnu7PQpEvokBDx6cSuXqXGFabxj0f5UkVMmS_A9zVKXos3MUW1Dak4g5XEaKQNZzuagrMPyg_r8iYH2FPTjyju0y2bQomG/s1600-h/100_3555.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5216602714036999490" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6vnsggFxqyhIaKUcEx9Qzsk9-WtrTkUnboyDBCcEQ7FaqCqdnu7PQpEvokBDx6cSuXqXGFabxj0f5UkVMmS_A9zVKXos3MUW1Dak4g5XEaKQNZzuagrMPyg_r8iYH2FPTjyju0y2bQomG/s400/100_3555.jpg" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRzyM-dzI0-wP-gVoI7vLLjEA8j9i9foeS-qI7G_ya1wQB4F-LlO63FDbUOM4-SCpixPgFDtA-dOA9cmf6WgWmMieAkUt-unmeaEc6JYfdGa4ZQU_Xy8vjKvaKz607y_zom9pP8MSxGMvW/s1600-h/100_3540.jpg"></a><br /><br /><div></div>
