Help prepare​ for induction

Elizabeth

Hello ladies, I am currently 34w+2 and on home rest, but we plan to induce at 37w (fingers crossed I make it to 37) due to medical reasons. At this point every day pregnant is a good day.

My question is, is there anything I can do to help prepare my uterus/area for birth? With my first I had to get induced without any warning and had really bad tearing I would like to avoid​ this time around.

I've heard about primrose oil and raspberry leaf tea but I absolutely do Not want to do anything that may cause me to go into labor at this point. I want to be pregnant as long as possible. Does anyone have experience, are these safe for me to use or any other recommendations?
