natural ways to induce labor <3
My cousin is about to have her 2nd baby. Due in a week. Went to doc Friday and was 1cm dilated and 60% effaced. She has been in so much pain this pregnancy and I'm trying to help her out. Plus I'll need to know in 5 months anyways!
I found this article and want to know if someone has done it and it be true. Also sure ur other remedies.
"To properly do the massage in order to induce labor, it must be understood exactly where the pressure points are located. The pressure point for a foot massage is located just above the inner ankle. When you massage this area in a circular pattern for 15 to 20 minutes, the uterus will start contracting. There is also a pressure point located on the hand. The pressure point is located between the thumb and pointer finger –right on the webbing. Doing the same circular massage for 15 to 20 minutes will cause the uterus to contract as well."

I've also heard of castor oil, evening primrose oil, sex, walking, bouncing. But I want to know if they actually work! For her and me. Hubby is to deploy 4 days after my due date. God please let baby come early when healthy!
