Old wives tales

Hey ladies!
I know some of it is just old wives tales but hit me with things that helped to encourage labour or generally help during labour.
I’m currently drinking raspberry leaf tea.
Interesting to know what other people are trying!
I’m 35 weeks, no I’m not trying to encourage labour now but just getting ideas of things I could try in the next few weeks☺️
