Don't do it!! I know it's tempting but the number of people I know who have ended up not in labour but with uncomfortable post spicy curry tummy on top of their late pregnancy woes....It's just not worth it. Particularly if you DO end up in labour...you really don't want to be also wanting to sit on the loo most of the time.


Maybe there are other positive experiences people can share.


I tried acupuncture at 9 days overdue. I was in labour 48 hours later. Probably coincidence. Ended up a very long protracted labour (over 48 hours) so have always wondered whether he didn't like being hurried!


When was/is your due date? Have you had enough?! Quite understand that one...

i agree, worst case you end up with a bad stomach during labour!


things that i think worked for me are reflexology, a sweep, and kerb walking (which sounds awful but its walking with one foot on and one off the kerb)


i ate so many hot curries i went off curry (and i really love curry)


having said that... tandoori nights is my curry house of choice.

Ah, Tandoori nights!!!!


I love their chicken red chicken handi... Please tell me they still do it. Haven't been since the boy arrived 4 years ago as they don't deliver and we'd moved beyond easy pick up distance...


Don't go near it Sophie - its nuclear and will mess with your insides but God I love it.

I had an early baby so no direct experience but remember some friends talking about some rosehip tea or something which they got from the health shop on LL. The staff in there are always very helpful I find, perhaps worth going to see them and ask for their opinion?

    • Missing Cat! 11 months old/ Our friend, Coco, has gone missing. Last seen evening of 31st October near top of Henslowe rd where it meets Underhill Rd in SE22. We know she has started wandering up Friern Rd and further we guess but we imagine she has been spooked by Halloween / Fireworks goings on. She is a grey Siberian mix with some brown stripes down her, very friendly and likes to eat. Please let us know
    • That said, organised displays could be on Saturday before and after and the actual day, and private ones could just not have the loud ones.  It’s all down to accessibility and people caring/not caring
    • The problem this year is that 5th November falls on a Wednesday. So some places will be bringing their "bonfire night" forward to Saturday 1st and some will be knocking it back to Saturday 8th and there'll probably be a few that just go with Wednesday 5th anyway. If you're doing a public display, having it on a weekend gets more crowds. Which basically means a solid week of fireworks.
    • Fireworks in this area do feel totally incessant at this time of year, almost every evening there is terrible noise. I feel great concern for wildlife, pets (I have a senior cat who hates them), as well as people who struggle with PTSD etc. Last year I even had people setting them off in front of my home. Tonight and yesterday evening have been particularly bad. Is there anything we can do as a community to prevent this? What action can we take? Surely we shouldn’t be expected to just put up with it every year for weeks on end!
