Dates?

Question

Hello, have any of you been eating dates to soften your cervix? I was wondering if this is actually an effective way of helping with labor. Just curious as to what your thoughts and experiences were!😊

Answer

Eating dates is actually the only scientifically backed way to help your body prepare for labor. I’ve never done it before, but I plan on starting in the next couple days! I forgot them at Costco this morning 🙄

Answer

I have actually really just off and on. Went to the doctor last went and he said I was 1cm dilated. And softed and thinned out

Answer

I tried a whole huge Costco container of them with my first and they didn’t help me sadly.  
Good luck!

Answer

I am over halfway through the Costco container... so hopefully. But I liked dates...
