What made YOU go into labor?

Week 39 and hoping for my VBAC. 3 days until membrane sweep but that is IF I am dialated 1cm. I am walking 1-2 miles a day, bouncing on my yoga ball, and drinking raspberry leaf tea. I am afraid to drink castor oil. Any other suggestions?

There is on YouTube some yoga for inducing labor, there are many pregnant persons that could swear by it... I tried it while at 39 weeks out of the same desperation and truth is, labor started the day after; idk tho if it was coincidence or not. Worth giving it a shot, just YouTube "yoga induce labor". Some midwives also recommend massaging the nipples and having orgasms / when sex is not possible, this can be pretty DIY 😅👍 Ah and word on the street is that expressing colostrum (by hand) can trigger labor contractions, maybe if you want to store colostrum, this is a good 2 in 1 win. Good luck!! 🫶

So I was dilated to a 5 for a month and needed him OUT! I watched “activating labor” and within 24 hours I gave birth and had him in my arms! Labor was awesome too! 5 mins of pushing

Fear of having my belly cut open. My doctor did the procedure with ONLY 5 shots of novacaine where he would cut. After suffering a month of Braxton Hicks, I was scheduled for Monday morning and I gave birth Sunday morning.

Girl i walked, tried to over work myself, sex with hubby, ate dates , and drank raspberry. Idk if it was all these things together but one thing that i think HELPED me go into labor was this foot pressure point massage. Your suppose to have someone massage it for you and it’s supposed to induce labor. I had my sister do it on both feet, the following morning at 6am my water broke! Look the massage up and do it! I’m like %100 sure that’s what got my labor going.

Pineapples! I know it sounds crazy but I ate them 3 days before my baby due date and he came on his due date. I thought the pineapples were bad because I started having symptoms of a stomach virus.. gross right..but I was going into labor, my water broke. Everyone is different because sex was not our solution!
