I went to the hospital to be induced and was sent home due to no advancement but my dr told me sperm is a natural inducer. She told us to go home and ravish each other and girl we had sex 4 times that next am and by 9 that night my water had broke and we were back at the hospital. Just sayin..... It was told to us by my dr and nurse and I have heard lots of people say or worke for them as well. Pls you get to have fun and time with the hubby cause he will feel neglected for 6-8 weeks after ;)

That must be awful.  I had a c-section a week early with my first (she was breech)  and I'm only 11+6 with my second,  so I don't know from experience what you are dealing with.  I wish I could be more help, but I wanted to respond so you know someone heard you and hopes things get moving soon!

I'm sure you have probably heard these things already,  but I hear long walks, sex, and castor oil can help get things started.  No idea how ideal castor oil is, but some women swear by it.

I was also told at a nail salon that women should be careful getting pedicures while pregnant because there is a nerve in the calf that, when stimulated, can induce labor.  Maybe that's worth a shot?

Anyways, best of luck, and if you need someone to talk to Id be happy to give you my email
