Drink raspberry tea! Never drink it before you are full term as it causes uterine contractions, but once you are ready to go, raspberry tea can't hurt and it definitely sent me into labor with my first.

I'm 40+4 and I've had several false labors in the last few weeks. It feels like my baby will never come. I find it's pretty easy to get contractions going, i just can't keep them long enough to actually go into labor... So i feel your pain. :(

Honestly, I think it comes down to relaxing. When I couldn't dilate during labor it was because I couldn't relax between contractions. Once I did relax, boom! I dilated. Sex will help relax you besides the benefits that the sperm can do to soften you. Try getting a pedicure. Do something that relaxes you. It's worth a shot!!

Nothing worked for me.. including sweeps and internals. I feel your pain!! Good luck, hope it all happens soon and goes well x x

Stimulation of the nipples can sometimes get labor started because it causes your uterus to contract. Having sex can do the same.
