Does raspberry leaf tea help induce labor? My midwife gave me the okay to try and self induce. Please don't recommend Castro Oil.
Did you get a breast pump? Nipple stimulation is known to work wonders! If you don't have a breast pump.... Well you gotta do it the old fashion way and do it for a long time. But if you have a breast pump just pump for 5-10 mins at first and go from there. Any colostrum you lose, store it in the freezer, and you body will make more.
It doesn't put you in to labor, it is just supposed to help ripen your cervix.
Oh I need to try this! I've never heard of it!
I keep reading mixed things about it @andrealee. I suppose it's worth a try. Is there a specific brand? Can you get it at Walmart?
raspberry berry tea made me have my son at 36 weeks. i literally drank two cups and went to bed, when i wole up my water was broke...i didnt know it induced you. but it did. let me tell you😃

Is this the one yall drink to induce??? I'm desperate
My doctor said he would induce my labor at 38 weeks, if my baby girl still had growth issues and if the percentile dropped to 10 or less. Last thursday, it was 10 percentile, and he said if she didn't come on her own by 38 weeks, he would induce labor at that time. I'm 36 weeks 1 day today, he said my cervix was super thin, and 1cm dilated. Is there a possibility this can change... that my doctor will let her just come on her own? I don't want to be induced, i would much rather her come on her ...
It's my turn ladies!
Finally, after nearly FORTY-TWO weeks... I decided to get induced. Baby Violet scared me with some decreased fetal movement and I couldn't wait any longer.


Before u become pregnant think of this
Do I want to be uncomfortable as hell for 40-42 weeks?
Do I want to be in horrible pain for up to 14-16 hours even longer
Can I handle pushing a big ass head through my vagina
Can I handle this with no pain meds(sometimes u can't make it in time)
Do I want to go to the hospital 10x before I'm actually in labor.
Because inducing your labor at 32-37 weeks for your own selfish needs or getting a csection to do it the "easy" way is just plain selfish and FYI a...
Please help!
My doctor is trying to induce me before 40 weeks because she's going to be off on my due date and says my placenta is starting to look old. How do I get labor started?? I don't want to be induced for no reason and I'm thinking I won't have a choice. Please help. What do I do to get things going?
@aiellomorgan, I just picked up some evening primrose oil capsules too! I'm so determined to not go past my due date this time lol. We'll see what happens!
