nipple stimulation

Has anyone had any success with it? I want to try it but I'm not sure how long to do it for or if it'll even work.

I lost my mucus plug yesterday which I know can either mean absolutely nothing or it can mean my body is about to start getting ready so I figure it's at least worth a shot

One of my midwives said if I was dilated to 3 cm or more next week I could be admitted to birthing center and they would give me a breast pump and break my water.

She said that the pump would help start contractions. Personally I think it is like anything else if your body is ready it works but if body is not ready it don't do much.
