Starting labor

I am 37.5 weeks. I was wondering if theres anything that has worked for any ladies to start the labor process? I dont want to startnit now but in about a week or two start it. My doctor said the normal stuff like walking(which i do alot a work), sex, spicy foods and squating. He said that im still high, closed and thick and that it being my first i may have to end up being induced at week 41. Is there anything that worked for you ladies to start the process of dialating, dropping, etc?
