Tips for bringing on labour?!

[WanabeMum]

I'm 38 weeks today and have SPD so I'm very keen to get DD number 2 out now. Been having ad hoc low period like pains since about 2am but not becoming regular or increasing in intensity so I know it's not happening yet. I'm drinking raspberry leaf tea like I did last time and using my gym ball. What else can I do?! Any advice much appreciated!

I tried everything! they say bubba is not.gonna come time your bodys ready.. so i tried to help my body prepare i drank rasberry leaf tea and took evening primrose oil they help ripen your cervix! had baby within a week of doing this, plus they make labour quicker 1hr 38mins start to finish ;)

Ooh evening primrose oil is a new one for me. Thanks for that and very jealous of the labour length!

Repeated masturbation does some good apparently, so get thee on youporn lol! (not a bad way to spend the time let's face it)

have also heard the EPO theory, will be stocking up on that from 36 weeks onwards for sure.

Best of luck!!

Haha thanks ChicaMomma!

Gravity! Walk walk walk. Upstairs in your house or around house if you can't get outside.

I took rasp leaf in tablet form instead of tea form. x3 tablets 3 times daily from 36 weeks dd2 came at 38 weeks 4hrs from first 'twinge' at home to popping out

I dug over the borders in the back garden (that is not a euphamism by the way)

My mad old friend of my Mum's swears by rhubarb crumble.

Wow! Altogetherwonderful that was a fast labour!! That also seems a lot of raspberry leaf, not up to speed on the tablets

Thanks BeverleyMoss I am trying to be as active as possible and bump is VERY low today
