Pumping to go into labor?

Question

Has anyone tried pumping to go into labor?

Answer

My friend got the ok to try this at 39 weeks and went into labor that evening. Coincidence?  Who knows!

Answer

I saw some threads on what to expect about this. Ppl were getting milk and experiencing cramping, but idk if it worked to cause labor 🤷🏻‍♀️ Are you overdue?

Answer

I tried it yesterday and it did nothing. I'm going to try again today.

Answer

I tried it but I did it wrong which is impossible to do but I did lol I woke up with sore boobs and nipples and I did both at same time with my hands so probably that’s why too but my insurance sent me my breast pump today so I’m going to try again today with the pump 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 my last resort

Answer

When your nipples are stimulated it tells your uterus to contract. After baby you will see how this works (if you’re breastfeeding) so that uterus returns to normal size. It’s a fact that it will cause your uterus to contract ...wether you’re ready for labor or not will depend on your body! Good luck!!!

Answer

Dr told me last Monday it was supposed to cause contractions but who really knows. I don’t think there’s a magic thing that we can do to cause labor. However I was cleared to attempt it so I’m definitely going to try it 😂

Answer

I’m 39 + 4 and have tried it once. I got some cramping and one contraction. Going to try it again today since I’ve lost more plug. They say it will only really work if you’ve already started to dilate
