I have a couple of weeks to go.. but I'm ready to get this over with... I been told to have sex... that didnt work for me.. Castor oil .. did not work.. walking.. hell I cant even walk right about now since between my hips and legs stops me from taking a step... Is there anything I can do at home that can make me go into labor? I feel so miserable.. the pressure in my pelvis MY GOD is so strong,, I'm really suffering.. anyone that can help with advise!

I read that oregano and basil are supposed to trigger contractions (which is why they say eggplant parmesean...it has good amounts of those in it). Also squats are supposed to work. Good luck and **labor dust**

Just so you know.. Castor oil is not a good idea.

Why don't you talk to your doctor about being induced?

My mom and her friend AND my GF all were able to induce with nipple stimulation. (weird, I know). But it's supposed to start contractions in your uterus, my doctor even said so. My mom layed in the bathtub of really warm water (which will take the pain off of your pelvis so you can relax), and then under water she did nipple stimulation for 30 minutes +. You HAVE to do atleast 30 minutes, any less and your uterus won't be contracting enough for you to start labor. And the water will help so that your nipples won't be sore. She did that, took a nap, and was in labor 4 hrs later   They all gave birth either that night or the next day!! So I hope that will work for you! My mom didn't even want to tell me about it because she thought I would think she was weird or something.. hell.. when you're miserable and need to go into labor.. doesn't matter what you have to do! SO I hope that works for you!! You will have to let us know if it does.. I plan to try it when I'm 37wks since my pelvis/tailbone is about to re-break and the pain is awful. Need to get him out as soon as I can so I don't have to have an induced C-section.   **Labor Dust**!!!!

I know how miserable you feel.. I was due yesterday and my son has no intentions of making his way out just yet. Your daughter won't come until SHE'S ready..

exactly what i was going to say. i have given up on all the self induction techniques (not quite desperate enough to try castor oil, it's just stupid IMO) nothing has helped, so obviously your body and your baby aren't ready to come into the world.

I have.. he would not do it.. says all this am going through is normal... I wish he would.. is hard enough since ?I have other kids to take care of... and it slows me down to do for them due to the pains...

I understand your point on that.. but like I said earlier... I'm not even able to perform my duties as a mother when am like this all the time! i have 4 kids... this is the pregnancy that has given me the most disconfort.. is not something that just come and goes.. the pain is there ALL the time... I have to be a parent and am a student also wich I have to stand for hours at what I do... so it is pretty hard for me.. my baby CAN be born right now... even my doc said so when I saw him on thursday.... he wont iinduce.. insurance issues I guess. Thanks for your comment

I would like to be able to squat. haha. If I get down there I might not get up. Which would do NOTHING for labor. I told my hubby to start stockpiling the oregano and basil. He works at an Italian Restaurant haha. Told him to mix it in my omlettes the day I hit 37 weeks (according to the doctor's numbers at least). hehe

lol I was a manager at a pizza place for a little over 2 years and when I hit 37 weeks with my 2nd I would pile it on my pizza, but I would do it before it cooked...maybe try to use it primarily in sauces or add it to stuff after you've cooked it. It didn't work for me but I think that was because it was already dried and then getting sent through a 500 degree oven. lol I'm gonna try to find some fresh oregano and basil around the end of July!
