I won't do any of the oils..I've tried oregano,, and walking hasn't done the trick..i might try the tea,, also I've tried pineapple..nothing..nipple simulation only works if you do it for a hour at a time like 4 or 5 times a day..that's out i don't have patients like that lol.

For my 1st pregnancy my doctor did a membrane sweep and then told me to go home and walk. Maybe 3 days later? My water broke..

I haven't wanted sex in a cpl months now, but its worth a shot. I looked up some of the other things on the link I posted...interesting and perhaps worth a shot...casor oil, red raspberry leaf, nipple stimulation.

You're lucky, im 39 weeks on Tuesday and I haven't dropped yet. I guess its not uncommon for multiple pregnancies, but I'll be damned if she's not getting higher instead of lower lol!  lil girl must be packin on some ounces lately!

I also found this link on line regarding kickstarting labor...

Of course, you should be pretty close to your due date before trying any of these

Im 10 days away, but I think the dr. wants me to go in on Monday for a C-section (my 3rd). I really want to try to have a vbac, but she is not liking the idea at all. I wonder if I can ask her for a membrane sweep first t see if tha gets things rolling. I already told my husband he's having sex with me tomorrow lol! Supposedly, something in the semen gets you contracting...Idk , but I am so ready to get this baby out. I am so uncomfortable and have been super fatigued lately.

Try walking. I did that with my last pregnancy but I was already a week over due and 3cm dilated and I lost my mucous plug. The night before my induction my water broke. Good luck:)
