aww huni, i really hope it starts naturally for you this time..

to be induced 2 times and having the worry of you might have to do it again, here have a

I dont know of any ways to start you off, maybe try a hot curry, then a long walk, then some pineapple when you get back, then the best bit sex.. if you do it all at once you may be in with a chance..

good luck sending labour dust your way

Lots of walking, up and down the stairs. Evening primrose oil, rasberry leaf tea (yuk) and try relaxing (easier said than done) The baby won't come if you're tense. Ask DH to give you a massage, have a glass of red wine and see what happens.

good luck. Iwas induced and it isn't much fun.....

I sympathise ALOT - im now 2 days over (altho i feel like it should be more!) and have SPD. They came to do a sweep on my due day and my cervix wasnt even soft enough so they couldnt do it.

I think ive tried everything over the last 2 weeks. Caster oil being my lowest point. (loads with a pint of orange juice) - gave me the worst runs ever - but didnt do anything. - ALTHO ive read it does work for somewoman. - check it out on the net.
I tried eating a whiole pineapple yestrerday -made my tongue sore... and nothing else. Walkings hard for me so i havent done that 'that' much. Ive had lots of sex and still nothing.

babys determined to make a grand entrance at my sisters wedding this thursday i think lmao. (my sisters worsed fear)

if anyone else has a birth secert!!!! ill pay good money lmao!!!


p.s. boucing on a birthing ball is ment to be good too.

No, best wait until later! Have a nice soak in the bath first.........oh, and you could try Verbena oil. My midwife told me it's meant to help stimulate contractions (they are well into herbal stuff over here )

Good luck!

In all honesty i dont think anything works, baby will come when its ready. I'm nearly 6 days over now, in the past 5 days alone i have tried:-
1.Reflexology
2.Massages
3.Long walk
4.Pineapple
5.Raspberry leaf tea from 37 weeks
6.Sex
7.Two hot curries
8.Nipple stimulation

AND I'M STILL HERE!!!!!!!!!

Apparently bouncing on a trampoline is very effective, but not all that safe I imagine...

Completly agree! if you could 'make' your baby come out NO ONE would ever in thier right mind go over due!!
