I was 7 days overdue with #2, and tried nipples, sex, walking, and castor oil (which made me feel AWFUL), but that girl came when she was good and ready to. I know it is awful to be 9+months pg and in the waiting game, but I hope you have a great delivery! The blowjobs are up to you!!! LOL

My water broke and I didn't go into labor for 3 days and I tried everything. The castor oil honestly was the most effective. Nipple stimulation was too irritating, but it might have helped too. I took a homeopathic remedy which didn't work either. Very long walks didn't help, and spicy food didn't help. I'm sorry!
and my HT

I swear by a good deep orgasm to help the waters break I found it easier to try this solo, lol.
But I have also heard these can help too:
Clary Sage oil
Swing on a swing/seasaw

Yup. Twice now. I inserted it vaginally from 37 weeks on and took it orally 35 weeks on. I don't know if it actually did anything to bring on labour, but it might have softened the tissues/cervix. I don't think I'll do it again as I don't feel it was necessary(for me). Hth!

I was just wondering... i've been taking it orally this week, with all my births my cervix never had much change in it until I was in active labor, but with my last one I was 1cm dilated for 13 hours and I finally got an epidural and for whatever reason I went from 1-complete in no more than 5 minutes, I was scared for awhile because I had never had a labor stall like that, but I was also induced. I am kinda hoping this stuff softens my cervix a little so if I do have to be induced again we won't have a repeat performance of last time
