Sex advice (TMI)

So I really want to get this baby out, and I heard sex can help. I’m in so much pain with my back right now and I’m just so tired sex isn’t even on my mind. We were pretty active last week but this week has just been me balancing contractions and having a busy ass schedule. My partner and I tried today but I was just kind of there trying to get over my back pain and then he got upset because I checked the time on my phone and he wanted to stop. I want to be into it so that we can enjoy it more and also get this baby out, but how do I get past thinking about all my other symptoms?

following! i’m in the same boat 😵‍💫

I did the miles circuit for about 2 hrs. Just kept repeating the movements and my water broke during one of the lay down exercises

@Andrea what is miles circuit?

@Andrea trying this ASAP, thank you!

@Mari they have tutorials on TikTok. Highly recommend it. But mind you I was already contracting that day off so doing the exercises just helped to move things along for me. Good luck

@Andrea I will definitely try it, I lost my mucus plug (tmi sorry lol) this morning and have had contractions on and off all day but it’s almost 2pm with not much else progressing so I’m desperate haha

@Mari when I lost my mucus plug the first time, it was just like that. Not much progression. Contractions were inconsistent. About a week or so later is when my contractions became consistent and that same day I lost my mucus plug (either again or all the way) and started doing the miles circuit after about 8hrs later and my water broke. How many weeks are you

@Andrea Im 39w5d today, I had a membrane sweep yesterday about 24 hours ago now, and I had mild cramping but nothing else really happened until this morning with the mucus plug. At my app I was already 4cm and 80% effaced so I’m hoping it was going to do more to get labor going

@Mari yeah the mucus plug I heard isn’t a good indicator that labor is nearing. Try to miles circuit for as long as you can and hopefully you’ll go into active labor soon
