When will you start inducing your labour naturally?

Question

I'm curious to see when other mamas intend to start the eviction process. My last pregnancy I started at 34 weeks and delivered 1 week before the due date.

Accepted Answer

It’s seriously silly to start trying to induce labour that early. You don’t know if it’ll work right away and then you’ll have a preemie. Just relax and let your body do it’s own thing! Your baby will come when it’s ready.

Answer

Nothing works so I’m just focusing on getting my body ready for labor instead of “inducing”

Answer

I personally won't do anything different.

Answer

With my first I start preparing at 36 weeks, doing evening primrose oil, bouncing on yoga ball, drinking raspberry leaf tea, nothing that actually induced, just prepares your uterus and cervix. With this one I won’t be doing anything because I know I’m delivering at 36-37 weeks due to IUGR

Answer

I'm due 4th Jan and I really, really don't want an Xmas baby so I'll start trying to get things moving starting the 1st of Jan.

Answer

I had membrane sweeps with my daughter at 41 weeks. I’ll do them again after 40 weeks with this one. 
DO NOT TAKE CASTOR OIL!!!! And you can eat a ton of pineapple but you really have to eat the core for it to work and eat a ton of it.

Answer

I started at 37 weeks and had my son at 37 weeks 5 days. All I did was eat tons of pineapple, spicy food and bounced on my yoga ball. Lol the night I did all 3 at once he came the next morning. I will do the same this time. I’m almost 32 weeks and I’m miserable so hopefully she comes around the same time as my son.

Answer

What are some things to help my body get ready? I’m being induced at 37+3 (a little less than 4 weeks). My ob was saying it will be a long marathon being induced and getting my cervix ripe as a FTM.

Answer

That sounds kind of weird to me? I’ve never heard of that it seems early lol why wouldn’t you just let your baby come naturally??

Answer

I will prepare for birth, like EPO, dates and red raspberry leaf tea. But I won’t try to induce. Just prep my body! I’ve been working out my whole pregnancy to prepare as well
