I'm 40+ weeks and have tried spicy food, sex, nipple stimulation, walking, pressure points, and nothing has worked. I won't try castor oil because i have heard mixed things about it and don't want to do anything that might harm the baby. Good luck!!

I would use the pump for about 10 mins then walk for about 10 mins and then switch breast and use pump again...I think you can see where this is going. I was in full labor is about 12 hours! Good luck!

mylittleman - 966 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) Gosh i was just there a couple weeks ago!! Honestly, you can try all those things but unfortunately you wont go into labor until your body is ready. Once your body is ready those things will definitely help move it along. I walked every day and I still ended up having regular contractions for 4 days straight..that's right, it sucked! I finally went into active labor on the 5th day of contractions and even then I was only 3 cm~! Hang in there!
