Has anyone any methods, that actually worked for them, to induce labour safely.
April 15, 2008 at 11:33 pm #59667Taylor5MemberSex, there is something in semen that can induce labour…. if not in mood for sex, get a turkey baster 😆 😆 😆
Rasberrry Leaf tea
Pineapples (fresh ones)
Plenty of bouncing on a birthing ball
Long walksCould you not talk the midwives or doctors to do a cervical sweep to try bring on Labour

May 1, 2008 at 3:32 pm #60940JanelleMemberI had gone four days over last year with my first baby and was well and truly fed up. My sister heard in work the pineapple thing but also to drink quinine soda water. She arrived to me with fresh pineapple and the bottle of quinine and nearly sat on me to finish both..I tried but was ready to burst finished as much as I could …well started pains that night and had baby very next day may be coincidence but I know how you feel you’d try anything to get it started!Best of luck 😀
May 2, 2008 at 9:35 am #60966Taylor5Memberit must have been the soda water as I ate a pineapple a day for a whole week and nothing not even a twinge!!!!!! Tried plenty of sex… even while eating a pineapple at the same time 😆 😆 😆 😆 😆 😆 And still nothing happened…….. as my mammy says "when the apple is ripe it will fall from the tree"
May 7, 2008 at 5:12 pm #61209MissymayMemberI have had the baby now, He was born on Sun 27, went into labour naturally on the fri night. I can hear him crying now, so might be able to log back on when he 18.
