Walking !! I need to start doing some walking. But I hear walking , curb walking , and bouncing on an exercise ball will help make labor easier and/or induce labor lol

I only have heard of spicy food inducing labor! Dates & raspberry leaf tea helps prep your uterus and cervix for labor but I don’t think it will induce labor

Castor oil

Get a fitness ball, sit on it, and do an 8 motion on it.
Sex helps (:
Do NOT use Castor oil, please.
Do your research before trying anything suggested, see if you feel safe doing it.
Also perineal massages to help prevent tearing down there.

I asked my Dr today she said please don’t use castor oil! So please double check with your Dr about that!

I’ve tried it with my 1st one && no problems at all && plan on using it again to induce but choose what works best for you hun 🫶🏽

The only way sex will help is if you cum first and he cums inside of you. Something about the oxytocin from you cumming and the sperm thinning the lining that helps.
