I need to go into labor. I went to the doctor today and they said my baby was about 9 pounds. And I still have to weeks togo. I haven't dilated at all. I don't want to end up having a c section. I need help on ways to help bring on labor. I feel like she's never going to come out. HELP!!!!!

    Lol sorry I was thinking, patting pineapple? Never heard of that one... I'm sorry mama, I don't know anything that really works, I'm 3 days overdue, if I new any tricks that worked I wouldn't be miserable, I hope you find a solution soon

    I tell u what not to do walk for 2 hrs im so sore now, also saying ur baby is 9pound is innacurate could be only 7 they cant tell to the exact only within 2 pond each way. um sex might work not workin 4 me n nipple stimulation hasnt either but ill keep trying. Dont have a steaming hot bath it can work but causes baby to stress n can have first bowel movement in belly. um ive heard a fair bit about eating eggplant or hot curry. I dunno good luck though x

    I don't wanna do that castor oil cuz my sister did that and it just made her sick. Didn't put her in labor

    Do you have an old country buffet around? I had a dr actually suggest eating their food to put them in labor. Or try having someone take lots of belly pics. I know it sounds weird but everytime my mom takes a pic of a prego belly they go into labor the next day.

    My midwife just suggested accupressure. Its massage of the ankle area. There are videos on youtube on how to do it, I have been trying, with no luck, but maybe it will work for other people!

    I have heard that mac and cheese w/ A1 added helps w labor. Not sure. I am going to try that 1 this time. As this is my 4th i have been induced w all of mine, would love to so go on my own, but truely doubt it

    Get ur blood pressure up then go to the hospital and complain about back pain as long as your pressure is up they Will keep u and induce u that happen with my last to two
  • vayannavayanna
    I did the ankle pressure point (on accident) it worked for me greatly..... I was 34 weeks n talking a relaxing bath and I went n rubbed my ankles because they was really swollen u had got out n was putting lotion on again and massaged my ankle again and two almost three hours later I went ib to labor started having contraction thought they where braxton hicks so I didn't pay ni mind n then my back started hurting so bad went n I was 3 cm dilated.... But like jade_may9th said complain about back pain they will chalk it up to back labor because they can't monitor those contractions on a monitor.......

    I tried everything with my son and nothing worked ended up being induced 12 days late and he weighed 9lbs 9.5oz. I tried eating spicy food (vindaloo) eating pineapple (ate a full 1 and I hate them) going for walks, bouncing like a looney on a birthing ball, getting on my hands and knees and scrubbing my floors, sex, really hot baths (id come out looking like a lobster) and nipple stimulation. Maybe some of those will work for you even if they didn't work for me xx

    I've tried it all I'm just going to beg my doctor to induce me :(
  • mums_the_wordmums_the_word
    Oh and my friend kept adding a little water to her urine samples so that they could always detect protine in it so they induced her at 37 weeks xx

    I've heard about nipple stimulation but read that using an actual breast pump works better because it contracts ur uterus as it stimulates.

    Sex. I had a friend that was in top n her water broke lol! And she had the baby that night plus sperm can speed things along. As long as u havnt been having any complications. Gl!

    Maybe get a pedicure with a leg and foot massage also have someone massage your neck and shoulder blades. Also massage the inside of your ankle.Also have your Dr strip your membranes
