What are ways to go into labor naturally?

Question

I’m Asking Cause With My First I Carried All The Way To 42 Weeks & Did Not Dilated At All & My Dr Told Me Today To Start Doing Work Outs To Help Dilate Myself By 37 Weeks & I Was Wondering What Are Ways To Do That?

Answer

I drank a TON of Raspberry leaf tea, ate as much pineapple as I could, walked miles a day, and I even tried "labor inducing" cupcakes (Google the recipe) and doing jumping jacks to get labor going. I do not know if any of these helped to get labor going, considering I was almost a week past my due date (40+6), but once I was in labor, things went pretty fast. I am convinced babes will come when they are ready, but I will probably try to speed things along this time around too.

Answer

By 36 weeks start eating 8 dates per day. They’ve done studies that they help soften the cervix and lead to shorter labor.

Answer

Red Raspberry Leaf tea I read helps.

Answer

I had 6 cups of red Raspberry Leaf tea the day before I had my 1st! Also walked and did squats!

Answer

Following- I was induced at 40+6 but docs said she could have easily made it 3 more days. Im looking for no later than 40 weeks this time if at all possible...this mama is tapped out.
