How can i put myself into labor?

Question

I'm due Thursday the 14th and two days ago when i went to the doctor she said that im good to go so if the baby comes he'll be perfectly healthy and all that. I was also dialated to a 1 1/2. So does anyone know a good way to get the contractions going? Also- i wanna try to avoid walking because the heat in Texas is brutal! Thanks!

Answer 1

You can walk indoors. And you don't need your husband for s*x. There's things that do that for him now.  

Answer 2

s*x, s*x, and more s*x... and make sure there's a lot of nipple stimulation... Have fun!! (At least you won't have to worry about getting pregnant!!)

...d**n, I just read your additional info about your hubby in basic training. Ummmmm, "The Rabbit?"

Answer 3

Walking was my suggestion its the best way to go in to labor faster. i have two of my own and my both  pregnancy was only less than 4hrs and ill i did was  alot of walking..u might what to thing that over again. If u down what to walk outside than make circles in ur livingroom not to be funny but walking would really help u.

Answer 4

go to a big mall and walk around in there! it'll get you outta the heat!

or try...

s*x (it's supposed to get things going..)

nipple stimulation is supposed to be really good

bouncing and stretching on a birthing ball (it's kinda like a big exercise ball)

a foot massage focusing on your heel and just behind your heel!

i would NOT suggest using castor oil, as it will just cause you lots of discomfort and you'll end up sitting on the toilet for a long time! plus it can actually cause the baby to have it's first bowel movement inside you..(called meconium) and it can cause a lot of breathing difficulties when born if little one inhales it! (very dangerous!)

Answer 5

Id still wait...

but its your choice. :)

walk indoors? Go to the mall and walk up and down the escalators and the stores. Have s*x lots of it...I heard nipple stimulation gets it going too.

Answer 6

Do not do any " home remedies' you are not overdue.  Do not eat anything strange ( or spicy ) or drink anything ( castor oil)  .  this will just make you sick and get the baby upset.    Just do a little more walking or have s*x.  Other then that, thats it.  The baby will come when it is ready.  Good Luck.

Answer 7

Yup... walking is the best way to induce contractions.
