Have your man massage your feet DEEPLY...this stimulates labor. Wish I would have known that before I was INDUCED with my first two! Good luck!

There is one more thing. I went to a herbalist in town, here in New Zealand, and they gave me a labour tincture, this worked with my last two pregnancies, put me into labour within hours of taking it

Btw, you need to insert the evening primrose capsules right up near the cervix, not into the cervix

Evening primrose as suggested by butterblocksmum, is a good idea, you can buy them in a capsule and 2-3 inserted by hubby or partner is a good way to ripen an unfavourable cervix, it worked for me, brought mine right round from the back to a more central position and thinned out effaced and slightly dilated within a few days, mind you, I was 7 days late at the time. You can buy it from the chemist and it comes in capsule form. A membrane sweep performed by your midwife or doctor, this is done by moving the membranes gently from the os, or cervix without breaking them, sometimes this puts you into labour within hours of it being done, especially if you have a favourable cervix. Walking, does work as well, in conjunction with the other two things I suggested it help things move along once you have started contractions. Sex, a good orgasm can bring it on Nipple stimulation, but you need to perform this for several hours. Hot, spicy food, this works for some women. I hope this has helped you hun. Hugs Niki

Apply evening primrose oil to your cervix....it should help `ripen` your cervix (don`t do this if your water has broken though). If you can`t reach your cervix, insert two of the gel capsules overnight into your vagina and take two orally (only do this after 37 weeks)on a daily basis. Red Rasp Leaf tea tones the uterus (does not induce) with practice contractions. Nipple stimulation will release the oxy hormone which should induce. Strap on your breast pump..10 min on, 10 min off. Hubby`s sperm will also help get things going if you feel so inclined. Acu pressure on your hands and feet can also set it off, but you need to visit someone who knows what they are doing. Please note, you don`t need to do ALL of these things at the same time! :)

Someimes it just doesnt work, the baby will come when ready ((())) hugs ~ if these things worked there wouldnt be overdue babies but I have heard red raspberry leaf COMBO works, must be the `combo` to really work. Can find it online. Lots of sex, nipple stimulation and walking too :)

nipple stimulation, one hour on and one hour off.

ali1970 (361 days ago)

  1. Here`s my problem. My Mom and I don`t always get along. Often she is very unsupportive, but she can also be great at times. It`s very unpredictable. SHe was out of Province for when my son was born, so my sister was in the delivery room. This time my Mom wants to be there (along with my significant other and my doula. We can only have 2 people plus the doula) Anyway, I`m afraid my Mom will be unhelpful and will not be able to support me and my birth plan of a natural labor. My sister was excellent at my last birth and I would love her to be there again. What should I do?
