Have you tried the coffee grounds, how long do you have to sit there? And is it safe

Also try raspberry tea. When I had my first baby I drank raspberry tea then had sex and my contractions started immediately.

Put coffee grounds in a bowl and place the bowl in the toilet then boil water and pour the boiling water in the coffee grounds in and sit on the toilet and the steam has been known to dilate you... after u do that take a long walk!! it sounds crazy but it has been known to work Goodluck
