I've eaten 3 pineapples so far. I've been having contractions for two weeks but I'm not dilating past 1 cm. I've tried warms baths before sex, walking. I am talking to my doctor about inducing on Wednesday. OH and the pineapples were all fresh and I even got a can of it for the juice.

@yahuahsdaughter, I was eating a good bit 2 times a day. Not to much because it hurts my mouth. Lol. And they were fresh ones and can ones.

i am with you mama, 38 weeks plus 4 days . i am trying pineapple . how many did u eat and were they fresh and cores?

This probably will sound counterintuitive but, if you're really stressing about trying to get the baby out, you might actually be delaying labor. Your body can sense a hostile environment and may delay labor if it thinks this is a bad time. So you really might wanna try legitamitely relaxing and kicking your feet up for a few days. Also your due date could be off a little and there might be a week or two left.

This might sound a littler personal you don't have to answer, but are you orgasiming when you guys do? My friend said a nurse told her it works so she tried it for 2 days with her husband and she had her baby. Other then that I would just say try walking to after sex when your cramping and see if that turns into real contractions.

it does. and I'm probably not going to be induced until Thursday... 😫😣

@missyann214, this sucks lol

@anessafraga, we have sex every day and I just get cramps! 😣

just lots of sex the guys sperm helps soften your cervix, and a friend told me when you have an orgasm it can help start contractions. Not sure if that part is true or not but worth a try.

I'm 40w 4d... I've tried everything too.. nothing... sucks... but id give Clary sage essential oils a try it didn't work for me but everyone is different!

Ugh this is annoying! Lol @mommagotbump16

Your body just may not be ready yet. It happens. You could start trying stuff again in a few days, see if anything helps then.
