I'm late and I've tried it all except castor oil. The baby is gonna come when the baby is ready. Or in my case, he is being stubborn. So my doctor has no choice but to induce me. I'm almost 42 weeks now.

sex is the only method backed by science that proves it helps with induction because sperms helps soften the cervix but it has to be a consecutive thing you can't just start having sex now and expect baby to come tomorrow lol but also they say having orgasms and nipples stimulation(since that causes your uterus to contract) helps bring on labor, but honestly like more the girls above had said...you can't force a baby out that's not ready, even being induced sometimes takes days before the baby comes

baby is still not fully developed not until 38 weeks its to soon you should just wait it out i know its hard but for the sake of your babys health its not easy girl but hang in there

they have raspberry leaf tea at target

Try Chinese food. I had some about 10ish at night four nights before my due date and about 3:30 am my water broke so I had my daughter three days before she was due. I read about Chinese food and inducing labor so I tried it and it worked for me but remember everyone is different if you try it. Chow mein and orange chicken from Panda Express lol.

and honestly, labor is hard period induced or not. You will find people that have great inductions and people that had great natural birth then you'll find those that had horrible natural and horrible induction stories.If you do those natural things I listed and it doesn't work your body isn't ready and you should wait but if they work your body was ready and needed help. Also you can find raspberry leaf tea at publix or a nautral herb store, also try pineapple core and spicy food. I've also heard soda can induce labor

Nipple stimulation, bouncing on a yoga ball, walking

EPO, curb walking, walking fast, squats, climbing stairs etc.

Your baby will come when ready I got induced 10 days after my due date and because I got induced I had a terrible labor and birth so unless it gets to 10 days after your due date don't rush anything it's dangerous to try to start labor early

@bbydee, ohh I feel you lol.. With my first I've waited and went in to labor at 38 weeks naturally exactly even though my dr offered me an induction. I heard its less painful when you go through labor on your own

@mommyandjonford, I feel like I'm going to go past my due date , I'm so over being pregnant

@bbydee, why not just wait when the baby is ready since your just 37 weeks? Just curious
