ways to induce labor!?!

*for a friend*
My friend is 41 weeks 5 days and she's scheduled for induction in 2 days.
She doesn't want to be induced, at all.
She can't have sex, her husband is in basic.
And she can't orgasm from masturbation  


Sooooo.. What else can she do!? Help : D

she's not dilated any but has been having painful irregular contractions on and off.

Walk, buy a dildo(she can still try) squats or bouncing on a birthing call.

just read eating omething like 7 fresh pineapples would put u in labor. Idk if would actually work but id try it

Has she had her membranes stripped? The first one didn't work for me but with the second, my water broke that night and DD arrived the next morning

Relax.

Baby will come when baby is ready and nothing she does will likely change that. She should rest up so she's not exhausted when she does go into labor.


Most of the things people will say (like walking) will only help facilitate labor once it's already begun.

Her doctor wouldn't do it because her cervix isn't open.

I bounced on a big old yoga ball up and down about 20 times then circular motion with my hips one way 20 times and the other way 20 times then I just kept repeating the steps through out the day, I did the deed twice before SO went to work (lol), I walked and walked and walked some more in my neighborhood through out the day, At some spicy foor for lunch and dinner. had alot of painless contractions before bed and woke up around 2 with painful ones 4 mins apart, blood and the runs (tmi) so I headed in and had her within 5 hours. Now if any of it worked Idk but it was fun to try because I had her the next day.
