I was 37 weeks and 70% efaced. I had gained 80 lbs and was extremely swollen and the ultrasound said my baby weighed 9 pounds and the doc wanted me to wait another week before she induced. She said kind of non chalantly that sex was sometimes known to jump start labor when the baby was ready so to "be careful". I decided to go home and have sex. I went to the doc on a Friday had sex everynight and early the next monday my water broke! But i would do this only if it's ok with your doc to still be having sex. Good luck!!

I have tried it all.. walking at the mall.. having sex... jumping on a trampoline.. Nothing seemed to help me go into labor all three of my times... I think those are all old tales.. when the baby is ready he or she will come..you should know this already.. this is your third

Honestly honey go have sex! :) Or take a ride on a bumpy road, or do alot of walking, I myself got chased by some biting flies when I went into labor because I ran from them lol. But I was told to go home and have sex to speed it up by the doctors at the hospital so I pass this on to you go have sex ;)

I was going to give you the same advice everyone else has... my mother in law works at a health food store and there are some herbs she has told some of her customers to use to speed labor up... because they were overdue.. so you might call your local health food store and see, or check out the internet..

walks climbing stairs having sex and when you get your contractions going take a hot shower let the water run down you back and try to do some squats with the water running down your back this will also help make your labor a little easier. and last but not least nipple simulation

Go have sex, if it's possible. If not, walk walk walk! Don't just walk a little ways. Walk a few miles until you feel like you can't walk any more. I totally know how you feel, I am 8 months pregnant with my third and it's TOO HOT to be pregnant.

well, I have heard that having sex works - buy who feels like that at the end of a pregnancy. I have also heard that drinking castor oil works, eating spicy foods, lots of walking, and driving on a bumpy road. Of course, you wouldn't want to do them all at once :) I think though that since you are almost there, patience may be the best medicine - good luck!!

I heard too that sex works because when you Orgasm muscles start to move and contract.
I heard also that raspberry leaf tea will help. A woman I heard of drank some and it induced her into labour.
I think though that labour and delivery suck. BUT.. it is a fact of life.
Your baby will be born when it is ready to.

Walk around the block like 8 times then go have mad sex with your hubby.... also get him to suck on your nipples to get the milk flowing.. It really works... that baby should be out in no time.
