Have you tried acupressure, this helps to get the cervix more favourable especially if still high and also helps to bring on labour if the cervix is ready I'm going to be trying to do this next week

Unfortunately my midwife cannot practice anymore and there are only 3 IMs in Adelaide so my only option this time is using the hospital system again but my hospital now offers homebirth. I have a great midwife but am still bound by hospital policy.

If you aren't already a member I know there is a Natural Hospital Birthing group on Facebook. I'm not a member but it is often mentioned in the Homebirth Australia group I am in. They will probably have great advice on navigating the hospital system to get the birth you want.

Hi Purple,

Sharon. Have you tried the oil in the bath? Or the evening primrose capsules internally?

Hi :) I'm glad the group is helpful. I don't know much about acupressure, does it work similar to acupuncture but I guess pressure rather than pins?
