I am due to have the baby november 28th. We just had a leak in the kitchen and are in the process of redoing it, I need to move my 2 year old up stairs (new room needs paint and a new rug), I have to repaint the babies room, and I still have to get all of the babies stuff into order (clothes, blankets, etc). Any advise in helping the baby to stay inside longer than the due date? I just want to be able to relax with my new baby and my other two children. Therefore, I have a lot to get done in a month.

Write the baby a short note explaining that, once he makes his appearance, he will be required to pitch in with all these chores. Scroll up the note, and have your OB/GYN guy stuff it through to him.
Babies have no sense of family responsibility, and it's a sure bet he'll find something to do where he is, rather than show up and start measuring for quarter-round moulding, or painting all the cut-in.
...Seriously, I don't think there's too much you can do! Good luck!

I know all this seens like big stuff to you but there is a saying don't sweat the small stuff. Do what you can without hurting yourself. Have the things that have to get done done.You really don't need to be painting and heavy lifting now. The most important thing is the baby, your 2 year old and yourself. Tackle these other things when you can. Even if it is a year down the road.

I hate to disappoint you, but there is very little you can do to delay the birth of a child. God and your own body will cause labor and delivery when it is supposed to happen. The only way that you can safely delay it slightly is through complete bedrest no painting, no moving. You need to have some friends and family help you with all of those projects, and it is not considered to be safe for a pregnant woman to be inhaling extra dust and dirt and paint fumes. Please get some help for the health of yourself and your new baby. Hope everything works out well for you and your family. Blessings to you all.

Higher some help and sit and rest while it all gets done for you. Or you could call on some family and friends to help you paint, and get the baby stuff organized. Make it a party! Don't sweat the kitchen, it will get done as long as you stay firm on the contractor.

i develop right into a similar way. the ultimate aspect I did develop into connect an allstar cheerleading squad. If u have one in ur section.. connect and do not sense stupid. e mail me each and every time for suggestion because I undergo in concepts feeling like u do and by no skill feeling strong sufficient. Get right into a recreation or software and acquaintances will come and with acquaintances will come protection. you'll shed extra pounds playing a recreation and do not attempt to be like people. J be tender with who you're. even as u turn 18 , you do not ought to work out the people who r rude to u ever back and they gained't count number. J sense free and throw your self into some thing u love doing or would love doing. people ur age will be rude and judgemental I undergo in concepts... there have been cases i did not elect to get off the mattress that day because I knew i might want to sense stupid or unliked at school. i'm no longer particular if that's exactly what you're feeling notwithstanding it receives better effective. J tutor each and every man or woman incorrect through growing a cool female, who believes she's strong sufficient to be acquaintances with people she once concept were better effective than her, and if people don't love u, its no enormous deal...people do and also you want your self. Have that approach

Perhaps you need to consult with your OB/GYN that's what they are for and why they get paid.
You really need to consult with your Dr. If there is no sign of labor, you can pretty much continue with your activities; providing there's not any strain on the baby. AGAIN, you need to call your Doctor if you have or if there are any concerns!!!!
If you have so much to get completed before the arrival of your baby, get family and friends involved.

I'm no expert, but I would say don't move. Bed rest helps women who are at risk for preterm labor. It doesn't sound like that's an option for you though. Good luck!

You really can't do anything to avoid labor, nor should you try. You can avoid triggering it early by going easy on any physical activity, but when that baby is ready to come, it will come.
