I tried it.

But got bored very quickly. You have to do it for sooooooooooooooooo long, and urgh, it was to much hard work...

I ate a curry before my waters broke, u also walked a fair bit. I went 3 days OD with DS. Saying that, my scan at 7 weeks, told me my due date was the 1st may (his birthday) it was at the 12 weeks scan they pulled me forward 3 days.

Anyway, I was to lazy, but let us know how you get on

I think nipple stimulation stimulates oxytocin, the labour hormone. it's a great way to help with labour, as is orgasm (also stimulates oxytocin) but if your cervix isn't ripe, there are some other options you can try..

1)sex (could be fun even if it doesnt work!)
2)Acupuncture (ouch, why am I imaging a pin head baby popping out?!)
3)Evening Primrose Oil (Dunno what this tastes like or even if its to be drunk?)
4) Castor Oil (highly vile and makes you er poo a lot!)
5) Spicy Food / Curry (nope korma is for wimps! try madras or jalfrezi!)
6)Raspberry Leaf (ewww just ewww!)

the things we do to bring it on then when its out ..I miss me bump is all thats heard!!!!!

I tried it but got bored and found it didn't work, I also tried curry, lots of walking and running up and down the stairs but I don't think it worked for me. I went 8 days over and was in slow labour but truly beleive labour will be iminent when your body and baby is ready and don't think anything you do will speed it up. I can understand how frustrated you must be though hun, I hated the waiting, it was awful and made me VERY moody! Hope something happens for you soon

It did nothing at all for me.

Try an evening primrose capsule up 'there' before bed, it contains protoglandins, these are in spermies and what is supposed to soften the cervix so an EPO capsule is the next best thing. My waters broke the day after doing this but I'd also had a curry and walked a lot too.
