Any way to speed up contractions?

[magicdoll]

My waters broke at 3am this morning. I'm currently at home having contractions every 10-15 minutes but have been told I will need to be induced at 10pm tonight if things don't pick up over the day. I really want to avoid being induced as it means I won't get to go to the birth centre or have the water birth I'm hoping for. Does anybody have any tips for speeding things up or do I need to be a bit more patient?

What have you tried so far?

Clary sage worked for me

Bounce on a ball? Some vigorous hoovering? Good luck!

Raspberry leaf tea? Don't know if just drinking it on the day would help though but may be worth a try!
