When did you/will you try to induce labor?

Question

Answer

After 41 weeks if the placenta shows signs of not working. 42 weeks otherwise. Prior to 39 wks has been proven to be unsafe due to respiratory and brain development still being immature. Medically necessary induction is different and weighs that in. Elective induction and c section isn't supposed to occur until actual full term+. Prior to 37 wks is pre term
37-38.6 wks is early term
39-40+6wks is full term
41-42wks is late term
42+wks is post dates

Answer

How about a never option? None of these things you can do at home other than breast stimulation have been shown to scientifically work, and many have negative side effects.

Answer

I didn't and won't. The only things I would do is continue having sex, waking, going for drives on bumpy roads, nipple stimulation (maybe), and bouncing on a yoga ball or the edge of the bed. Nothing serious and nothing harmful.

Answer

I never did. I just let it happen. There is no use in trying to force it because it wont work unless your body is ready. She came all on her own 4 days late
