Labour starters?

Currently on baby no 4, was advice they would induce labour by end of next week as my little mans placenta isn't fulfilling the job so he's now weighting smaller then he should however I do know from previous growth scans not always right DS2 was told he was small and he was 8 pound on due date, also if you've had early baby's before how likely is that to happen again?

I've got a history of earlier baby's

Dd1 waters broke spontaneous 33 weeks was born 35 weeks --5.14once

DS 2 due date --8pound

Ds3 3 weeks 4 days early --8.1

Now with baby no 4 he's low I've had many Braxton hicks I was told I could try some methods at home to gently start things sex I have a lot of anyway so don't find it's working for me and DH this time around
I've eaten 6 pineapples first few increased BH now it
Does nothing but give me heart hurt. Tried a hot curry just gave me heart burn, walking does nothing I think as I was pretty active before lockdown it makes no difference
Any tips mummy's? Xx

I was 5 days late. One morning I woke up with terrible heartburn and thought 'this baby needs to come out' my friend said to tweak nipples so I thought I'd do one better and get out my breast pump. 10 minutes later I got mild contractions, stood up and my waters broke there and then so get on those nips. Good luck x
