Best ways to get yourself to start dilating besides sex(my partner broke up with me😕)?? like natural…

sit in the tub and play with your nipples.

masterbate

wait until you're at least 37 weeks. baby will benefit from being in longer. more brain development and less of a chance of a nicu stay

I wanted to push my baby out too. I started at 35 weeks. But I would rather have a healthy baby than watch my baby sit in the NICU and not be able to hold him. Try evening primrose oil. It'll help soften your cervix and when the time is right things will go a lot quicker. So I've heard. That's what I've been trying. I've also heard there are some essential oils that helps. Go get a pedicure in a couple weeks.

I just had an ultrasound today and the baby is measuring 37 weeks and 6 days gestation @cass_lynne @happilymarriedmommaoffour

Sometimes ultrasounds aren't right. I would talk to your OB before you start anything. Everyone is different. My OB ok'd evening primrose oil because it doesn't kick start labor it just helps soften the cervix and when your body is ready it'll happen a lot faster and easier. Everyone wants our baby to get out faster but we also all want healthy babies. The babies will come when they're ready. There's nothing worst than forcing a baby out when it's not prepared.

okay. Walk A LOT! if you have a breast pump USE IT the constant nipple stimulation will cause contractions. Use Evening PrimRose Oil Tablets (2 by mouth in the am 3 inserted vaginally; wear a pad cause it'll stain) [get it at the pharmacy] masterbation will cause contractions as long as you orgasm. eat fresh pineapple, or something spicy. squats will help lower baby into the birth canal

thanks ladies! @happilymarriedmommaoffour @cass_lynne

I tried everything and I still had to be induced four days after muy due date lol so I don't trust any of those remedies lol

Lol agreed. my doctor told me to sit on an exercise ball and rock back and forth, side to side, lightly bounce on the ball, and do slow hip circles. she also said do squats, climb stairs, and walk as much as possible! definitely gonna take her advice haha @mommieof3_1angel

Yeah all of that will help baby move down more and help soften and thin your cervix. lol please don't try castor oil or that crazy stuff

Definitely not trying any of that crazy stuff! lol the most I'll do is eat pineapples like crazy and spicy foods haha @mommieof3_1angel
