I also read the other day that they (scientists? doctors?) are observing that it's a certain pattern or signal that takes place in the fetus's brain and basically tells the mother's body to begin labor.
If that's true, there really is nothing we can do to go into labor, despite what anyone says OE tries.

I doubt any think works.. I have done crazy cleaning of house, grocery shopping, laundry, cooking, moving items, sex last night & besides having sore body. .I feel NO contractions, NO water break either. ..I got 17 days to go !!

I guess when the baby and body are ready, , thats the only way to have an end to the last bit of our struggle. ..

I'd say walking or exercise.
I don't do the diet/drinks/food thing as I have a sensitive stomach and I'm very picky lol
It's my understanding that if tour water breaks, it's usually due to the pressure from contractions basically squeezing it so hard it pops. I don't know if that's the usual case or maybe the little ones tend to accidentally pop it somehow.

If you don't drink enough water you will go into labor. You have to drink a lot of water!!
