What can help jumpstart labor? I’m being induced at 38 weeks which is a week n half away.....but I want to see if I can get things started myself instead of medication.

Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
TWW!!
2dpo and on the tww journey. Anyone on the same dpo or close? Haven't decided if I will test at 12dpo or just wait and see if she shows up!!
I will be 41 :/
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
Labor and contractions are all about the release of oxytocin. Usually it's released by the baby to kickstart the labor when the baby is ready but..
Semen is good for softening and ripening the cervix so sex is beneficial, plus the intimacy and if you climax would give you a release of oxytocin
Nipple stimulation, can be done with a partner or if you have a breast pump do it on the lowest setting.
A warm bath to relax yourself.
Sitting on an exercise/labor ball allows gravity to work in your favor to encourage baby along.
Going for walks.
But PLEASE do not use castor oil. I know research says theres not many negative side effects BUT the research was only done on women who were past 40 weeks, before that it could be dangerous and it's not worth the risk.
I wish you the best of luck and a happy healthy delivery whatever happens if baby comes on their own or if you have to be induced. Either way you're having your baby soon!!! Congrats!
