Black Cohosh to induce labor?
What were your side effects,
Did it work?
I've read it helps ripen the cervix.
If you've never used it or don't have a clue don't answer
Thank you

Black Cohosh Tincture:
"Take 10 drops of tincture under the tongue hourly. This will have noticeable effect on the cervix in three or four hours. Continue until the cervix is fully soft and ripe".

I am slowly loosing my fetus, I am six weeks pregnant, and the baby has a heart beat but it is getting slower and the baby is not growing. My Dr. did an ultra sound, and said he can't do anything until there is no heartbeat. Did anyone ever encounter anything like this?

Do you get bigger when you have your second child then when you had the first? And do you get sicker and more weak for the second one?

I just recently went to my gyno because I haven't received a period for this month and he did an ultra sound and didn't see anything. He requested that I get a blood test done and sure enough it came back with a 294 HCG level which is positive for pregnancy.Keep in mind I've been on BCP's and take them everyday at 12p.m. I've been getting my period everymonth like clock work and now I'm pregnant. I already have a 7 1/2 year old and a 16 month old.

I've got a little bulge in my lower abdomen, and I've gained 7 pounds, bringing me up to 126. Someone told me today that I wasnt gaining enough weight and I should be showing a lot more already. Then she asked if I had felt the baby move yet and I said "No, not yet", and she said that "Thats not good. It might not be alive then because you arent gaining much weight and you should have felt it move by now." I dont have another Dr. appt for 2 1/2 more weeks. I'm trying not to freak out, but I'm scared now that I may have lost the baby even though I've been healthy. Any input or similar experiences?

Unless this baby comes out of me in the next week, I'm being induced. I'm between 1-2 cm dialated already, and am losing mucous plug bits throughout the day. I know Clary Sage oil can help speed things up, but how do I use it? Just sniff it? Massage on acupressure points? In a bath? Roll around in it like a giant hog?

Anyone got the dirt on how to use the stuff?

Is it generally considered safe to continue to have sex after your cervix has begun to dilate? I have read that you should not if your water has broken already, but what about up until that point? No other problems with the pregnancy..

I have a few questions...I am 7 months pregnant and I was wondering: 1.Am I suppose to choose a pediatrician before I deliver? 2.If I choose to breast feed will my breasts grow larger after the first few days of feeding? 3.Should I check out the hospital where I might be having the baby at? 4.Do you have to pay the hospital up front if you want the baby to be circumsized? 5.I am no longer with the baby's father, for reasons such as he wanted me to get an abortion...but I have a new boyfriend- and I was wondering can my baby have his last name?-but can I still receive child support from the real father? Please help, and thank you for taking your time reading this.

I'm 39 weeks pregnant with my first baby....The doctor has already stripped my membranes and hopes that I will deliver some time in the next few days. I've had irregular contractions...but I know that there are some ways to naturally help get labor going. I need some ways that actually do work...

does this mean with a few more Braxton Hicks that I should be pushing baby out shortly or is that still no way to tell? I'm thinking by the 2nd. (at the latest)
