Has anyone used Evening Primrose Oil vaginally?
I'm currently 38w+5 and I'm being induced this coming Wednesday at 39w+3 because of GD. At 38w+2 my cervix was still completely closed.
Since we've been planning a natural birth we've been trying everything to motivate our little princess to come out early to avoid the certain cervedil/pitocin combo coming my way.
Daily reflexology, raspberry tea supplements, LOTS of walking, dance, we've been intimate a few times,but it's just awkward.
What have your experiences with EPO vaginally? Did it help induce labor? Did it shorten your labor?

I have and last night and it sure kick start my labor process. I had my husband insure 2 capsules vaginally. You should give it a try
Ive not used that and understand being intimate can be harder it can help. There is s hormone/ chemical in male sperm that can sometimes help bring on labor. Also if u have an orgasm it can help bring on contractions. . Keep us updated how ypu make our when ur sweet girls here:) good luck
