I am over 39 weeks pregnant. would using my breast pump be a bad idea? I'd like to try to bring on…

I dunno for sure but I heard it makes the uterus or cervex smaller? so I'd be scared it would squish the baby. I have no clue if that's possible lol.

haha I have never seen it. I've heard it give you contractions and brings in labor. I don't know anything about the baby being squished :P @alicia3_18

I'm just talking lol. I dunno Dont take my word on it lol.

haha well I'll still look it up just to be sure! ive had no labor symptoms and I'm just trying to jump start this a little! @alicia3_18

yeah I would look it up I think I seen that on the I'm expecting app so it could be wrong lol

I did it and it worked for me. the doctors told me to give it a try and about 3 days later after doing it a couple times a day I had my daughter. I wasn't dilated at all though so it took time

oh okay I just wanna make sure it doesn't do harm to the baby! so its okay? @ashley1215

I'm high risk and my doctors said I could do it with the pump or my husband could. they told me that it releases a natural hormone that causes the uterus to contract just like when your baby nurses

how far along were you when you tried it? @ashley1215

@klander95, I was 39 weeks
