DIY Home Inductions
� Raspberry Leaf Tea � tastes disgusting but can be bought in tablet form which tastes much nicer. The best source I�ve found is Goodness Direct who don�t charge postage and packaging and deliver incredibly quickly. Raspberry leaf tea is a uterine tonic and is useful for childbirth as well. Some people swear by it others say it�s a load of rubbish. For me the jury is still out.
� Sex � Semen contains prostaglandins which help prepare the cervix and prostaglandin jelly is regularly used to medically induce labours. There does seem to be some debate about orgasms and positions but my midwife suggested the best is to have sex because you want to, don�t try to achieve an orgasm and finish on all fours and remain like that for 5 or at least 10 minutes to bathe the cervix in all those lovely hormones.
� Evening Primrose Oil - 2-3 capsules high in the vagina, repeat 2-3x 24hr intervals I�ve not tried this but it�s another version of prostaglandin. You can take evening primrose oil, orally, in the last four weeks of your pregnancy. You should take three evening primrose oil capsules daily for the first week (36th week of gestation) and then one to two capsules a day for the last three weeks of pregnancy.
� Castor oil - may cause irritability in uterus, non-labour contractions, also ends constipation/induces runs, serve in orange juice, root beer float or other drink; 1-4 Tbsp in drink (in 2 doses) The problem with castor oil, besides making you miserable and not always working, is that it can cause the baby to pass meconium in the uterus because the castor oil causes a relaxation of sphincters. It has also been noted to cause increased blood pressure.
� Nipple stimulation � rub your nipples for one hour three times a day; this is to produce the hormone oxytocin which can naturally stimulate labour.
� Cervical massage - 2 o'clock spot on cervix, rub for as long as 30 minutes. slowly and gently although it seems physically impossible to comfortable reach your cervix yourself when 38 weeks pregnant.
� Caulophyllum 200 - 1 tablet 1/4 hourly for 1 hour then 1 tab hourly for another 4 hours.
� Sweeping of the membranes - that is moving the tough membrane covering of the cervix aside. This can be painful but effective. And because it does not involve drugs it has few adverse effects for you or your baby. You need to request your midwife perform this procedure.
� Aromatherapy � There seems to be some argument over which oils are safe to use during pregnancy so if you are in any doubt ask a qualified aromatherapist. Lavender is a versatile oil which can be emotionally calming, sedating, and relaxing. It can help regulate contractions and is also a good antiseptic. Some manufacturers recommend that you do not use lavender during pregnancy. Clary sage can help ease stress and tension and make contractions more efficient. It is an antispasmodic oil so can relieve cramp. Peppermint is cooling and refreshing. Useful in relieving headache, nausea and vomiting. Eucalyptus has many of the same properties as peppermint and mixing the two is often very effective particularly for headaches. Alone it can help relieve nasal congestion and is an effective antiseptic. Camomile is an anti-inflammatory. It can calm and soothe the emotions. Frankincense is useful in cases of hyperventilation as it slows and deepens breathing. It can calm anxiety and is useful for asthmatics. Jasmine is a potent antidepressant and relaxant. Rose is also an antidepressant and calming for frayed nerves. Lemon and mandarin are refreshing, uplifting, and cooling they can be mixed with other oils to enhance their effect. Waiting for Baby Massage Blend 4 teaspoons Sweet Almond oil, 5 drops clary sage essential oil, 5 drops lavender essential oil, 3 drops geranium essential oil, 3 drops jasmine or rose, essential oil. If you are mixing essential oils, keep it simple - no more than five oils in a single mixture. Every women responds better to some oils than others. I use Quinessence to buy my oils.
