For reference to question, I’m 39 weeks. Baby prolly weighs almost 8lbs and I’m trying for a VBAC. Really don’t want to have to be induced or have a csection again

Personally didn’t work for me but what put me in labor both times was a membrane sweep and I’ll forever be glad I got them and didn’t have to be induced since both times I had high blood pressure

it helps to soften the cervix not put you in labor

And it's good for your uterus.... Especially since you had a c section.

I think it helped me soften my cervix and prepare for dilation. You can also look into evening primrose oil ! That’s what my midwife recommends

I used it along with eating dates, and going to the chiropractor and within 4 days and it softens my cervix enough for me to begin to go into labor
