sex to induce?

Question

How often should we have sex to naturally induce labor? I'm 36 weeks and I want my baby here already. lol my doctor said full term is 37 weeks, but I'm sure it doesn't hurt to start a few days early.

Answer

39 weeks is full term. No matter what you do to try to induce, baby won't come until baby is ready.

Answer

36 weeks seems a bit early to try and induce labor . I totally get how LONG these last few weeks will feel , but baby will come when baby is ready!

Answer

Y'all the only reason why I asked this is because there's a chance I may need to be induced anyway due to something with my sons heart valves. I would love to go into labor naturally, so if there is even a chance I may need to be induced, I'd rather try and do it with sex. So I can at least say I went into labor naturally.

Answer

I would start right away. You can also do evening primrose oil capsules and raspberry leaf tea

Answer

Sex won't do anything to induce unless your baby is ready. The prostaglandins in sperm soften the cervix and if you orgasm you can experience contractions. I wouldn't do anything to speed things up until 38 weeks unless you discuss it with your doctor first.

Answer

Why would you want to go against nature? I know the last few weeks are very hard, but your baby will come when ready.
