Is there anything you’re doing to prepare for labor?

Question

With my first I just walked a lot this time around I’m drinking Red Raspberry Leaf Tea hoping that does something for me along with bouncing on an exercise ball.

Answer

I’m drinking raspberry leaf tea, taking one Primrose Oil pill a day (orally), and eating 6 dates a day. I’m 33 weeks and will be delivering at 37 weeks. I’ll probably start rubbing Primrose Oil on my perineum soon..

Answer

I ordered the Bump Box and it had the tea in there, so I plan on drinking that. We’re doing the perineum massages to stretch all that out bc it’s already feeling pressure. If we get to the 40 week mark, I plan on walking a lot like advised in the “Guide to Childbirth” by Ina May. Also, in the Prenatal class she suggested a lot of sex in the final weeks and for your partner to ejaculate inside because semen has prostaglandins that naturally make the cervix softer.
