@lee-lee I have and they said that they actually don't recommend anything but its totally up to me and what I wanna do.
@snookster1644, yikes have you spoke to your dr about Home induction options ?
@snookster1644, aww man ! Baby’s just too comfy ! Lol I wasn’t expecting that to work so quickly for me but my son came at 37.5wks lol
@snookster1644 I would try some mild exercising like walking around or dancing a little bit. When they wanted me not to progress they forced me to lay down on my side and drink lots of water and take Tylenol. So as long as you're getting more exercise than that, it'll probably will help! I also hear stuff about the exercise ball but I never had one so.. Can't say from experience.
One of my friends did the buffalo wild wings challenge with both of her kids. She went into labor shortly after each time. Lol. Maybe it isn't spicy enough. 😂
@tiera_shaye I don't plan on it. I've heard more cons than pros of that stuff and I'm scared to even try it once.
I tried everything and nothing worked. My bestie was over due and nothing worked for her either. My other mom said eat a frosty and drive down a bumpy road. It worked for both of her kids.
@breloya I've eaten spicy pizza and hot wings and walked and had sex. I was induced on my due date with my last and had her the next day. I went in with mild contractions and they kept me.
Please do not take castor oil!!! It will give you the shits and can cause so many problems for baby. The biggest being that they poop while still inside you then aspirate the meconium filled amniotic fluid.
@lissdarlin I'm 2 cm dilated for almost 2 weeks now. I experience some Braxton Hicks but haven't made any progress.
With my second, I had no signs that I was going into labor any time soon. I went to sleep the night before my due date, woke up, and went into full blown labor. She was born exactly on her due date, so ya never know. Lol. But lots of mamas in my fb group made a spicy pizza. A few went into labor a few hours later. It may or may not have helped.
I swear getting adjusted by the chiropractor helped. Others things people swear by are: lots of walking, bouncing on a exercise ball, sex, pumping your breast milk. That's all I can think of at the moment lol.
@pinnkmom this is actually exactly what we've been trying for weeks lol. I've been 2 cm for almost 2 weeks now and no progress or luck with any of these. It's just dragging along lol
I never had to try. Although I hear exercise, sex, spicy food, pineapple, just walking around or dancing a bit. Good luck! Don't worry about not being dilated. One time I was I think too and I end up going into labor that night my water broke. My second baby I had no dilation at all, and still went into labor. That labor took longer because they made me lay down and drink water and not exercise which now I think I should have did the opposite because it was miserable to be in labor for almost 3 days. Plus I'm a C-section momma, so going through labor and then having a c-section is very exhausting.
@lee-lee I'm dilated but don't get many Braxton Hicks at all. It's like I'm making no progress and when I do get one I miss it because I don't notice it.
Also castor oil is NOT recommended ! I wouldn’t try it.
Sex (with a lot of nipple play), spicy food, and walking. I did all three and went into labor the next day.
With my son I took one teaspoon of castor oil when I had a Braxton Hicks contraction as per my dr.s orders and I went into labor 8 hrs later
Ohh I heard walking and dancing helps too
