http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=viewImage&friendID=126851108&albumID=0&imageID=1933790 here you can tell, even at 7 1/2 months my belly button hasnt popped, and now, im 38 weeks, and just the very top of my belly button pokes, so, even if i never pop, it doesnt mean ill never have a baby right??? lol, i mean, i dont mean to sound stupid, im just super ready, i have a drs appt tom morning and am hoping she says that ill be having a baby soon!!! gosh i cant wait...
how did you know you were about to go into labor??? or did it just like hit you?
what methods did you try to pop your baby out???
im afraid of castor oil, heard it smells bad, and taste just as rechid, so what else other then herbs can i try?
does pinnapple really help soften the cervix? because i ate a WHOLE one to myself last night, had a HUGE craving for it!!!
ummm any other weird things i should look out for?

I am also 38 weeks pregnant, due March 12th. My belly button still hasn't popped either. I have a really deep innie though. I don't even think babe has dropped yet. But, apparently for some women, things happen so last minute so it's not a true indication of when you'll deliver. This is my first, so no idea of what to expect. I have read that castor oil can be dangerous for babe as it can cause distress. Apparently pineapple works but you need to eat 7 whole ones...so you're 1/7th there. If you really want to soften the cervix, have sex. I have been taking raspberry leaf tea--it apparently doesn't induce labour but can make contractions more effective once labour starts, reduce labour pain, and can shorten labour all together. I hear that walking a lot is also a safe way to get things going. There are a ton of other suggestions, a lot are not proven to be safe. You've made it this far! I feel for you girl since I am in the same boat. But we have to be patient as babe will only come when he/she is ready no matter how hard you try to nudge him along.

My belly button never did pop out.
I had a crystal attunement and later went into labor.
Labor should start soon, if it doesn't try sex. When the baby drops into position it will feel like you are in an elevator going down fast. Labor shouldn't be to far behind if you are this close.

Congratulations, get ready for the most fantastic ride of your life.
My belly button only poped out a bit and I tried everything from sex to spicy food and my little girl was still over a week late. Don't worry about bringing your labour on enjoy your last few nights sleep, relax and go and do something just for you eg. pedicure. Your baby will arrive when he/she is ready to arrive. I personly started getting what felt like period pain before all the Fun?!?! started, was looking to see my belly drop etc but it didn't happen. Best wishes

I never had the bettybutton pop or that line you get down the belly and I had a boy I missed all that cute stuff! STOP trying to go into labor when your ready your body will tell you I was anxious with my first and 2 hours into labor I wished I was home on my couch enjoy it while it lasts!
