I'm going to speak to the distraction portion of your question...
Schedule a night out with your S/O or a best friend tomorrow... make some plans every night for the next week. It'll help keep your sanity :)
I would suggest everything from a movie night where you indulge and watch everything you want, a night out with your girlfriends, a trip to the movie theatre....
Whatever you do - don't stop living. If you can find something to look forward to every day - it may help take your mind off of it.
Good luck!

Well, he'll come out when he's ready...or when the dr makes him come out on the 13th. I know at the end it's horrible..you're so uncomfortable and you're anticipating the arrival of the baby...it's a rough time. I don't think there is much that you can do to make him come out but wait. As far as getting your mind off of it..I think that's pretty much impossible. I know with my first at the end that's all I could think about. It's hard not to. Try to just relax, watch some movies, go for walks...anything that you think will get your mind off of it. Best of luck! Hope your baby comes soon for yuo and on his own!!!

Walk, walk, walk. That's the best way to get the baby motivated to come out. Take like 5 steps then do a squat, 5 more, squat and so on. Have sex, that also helps. The night my water broke I went for a walk with my husband and did the squats. We came home and were getting ready to have sex when I took off my underwear I was wet. I knew it wasn't from being aroused. I went to the bathroom and as I lifted my leg to put back on my underwear, it gushed. Good luck!! I hope baby comes soon!!! BTW I had 2 of my 3 kids on their due dates because of my techniques.

Go for a long walk, take a hot bath and have Sex, let the semen sit on your cervix. It will soften it. DONT DO CASTOR OIL. Tried that almost 3 weeks ago (my daughter is 2 weeks 3 days old). All I got were false contractions and diaherria.
