starting labor

So I am 38+5 and 3cm dilated. Im trying to start my labor already im so anxious to get over with this pregnancy, I could barely sleep breathe or walk because im so small and my belly is so huge! Lol well I don't want to have sex with my babydad because we aren't fully in good conditions and I feel like hes been with other girls so I wouldn't want to have anything with him, anyways im going to try eating fresh pineapples tonight and see if I notice any changes. Do you girls have any ways to start labor other than sex??

I recommend evening primrose oil, not castor oil. I take two 1000mg orally in the morning after I've eaten something & then I take one vaginally & also one orally at night. I've only been doing it for like a week almost. Not sure if it's working but it's still good to try maybe my son will arrive before my due date lol I'm 38+2 & I just want him out!!!!
