ways to go into labor ??

[mommyof__2]

I'm 37 weeks but my son is already 7 lbs and I'm beyond ready to have him already
I know you won't go into labor until your body is fully ready but does anyone know of anything I can do to jump start it a Lil ??

Where can I purchase primrose oil and is there a certain brand?

I was also told by my midwife that pumping before baby is not good and can ruin your breastfeeding experience after the baby tries to latch. Myidwife did however tell me I could take primrose oil orally or insert it vaginally and drink red raspberry leaf tea. Good luck your in the home stretch! Can't wait to have my December baby

I heard pumping before you have the baby is not good

Evening primrose oil pills vaginally. I took 5 for two nights and was in labor the next morning. It works for so many women. I was 41weeks most ftm go 41

Try just relaxing. Dont rush or stress about it and it will be much more enjoyable. Enjoy these last months before the baby cause everything is about to change completely!

I swear, I hate my phone. Pre-labor contractions.

[wayfunmommy]

^^ It's actually very normal for pre-fabricated contractions to last for weeks. Pumping this early is not good for your supply and can actually be working against your labor. Nipple stimulation by just rolling them between your fingers is sufficient when your body is in the beginning of active labor to get it moving.

I have been having contractions and was only one cm dilated for the last two weeks I have been using the breast pump to mimic baby and saving the colostrum for her two weeks is way to long to be having contractions and in pain w.o progress so im trying everything sex walking squats its been helping but not intensely enough to go in and have her yet I am hoping that me pumping every two to three hours today will speed things up its sure been making them a bit more intense

Even with sonogram, there is no absolute way of knowing how big your baby is. Those measurement are often high by as much as 2 pounds. He may only be 5 pounds. Until your body is ready, there is no way of jump starting your labor, no matter how many old wives tales people spout.  Take it easy on your self. He'll be here soon, mama.
