For the safety of you and your child, you should not do anything that will deplete your body's fluids, like using a laxative. It is always safest to wait until baby begins to be born on its own.

Hmmm a suppository goes into your anus & a baby comes out of your vagina...so do you really think that having a bowel movement would trigger labor ??!! LOL
Do not try castor oil, it can cause the baby to have a bowl movement in utero! Very dangerous stuff! It was used back in the old days but is not recommended!! My babies health would be a heck of a lot more important than triggering labor

First off if you are not full term do not try anything!!!! Some old wives tales are to take a spoon full of caster oil, warm water enema (this worked for my girlfriend), and for me I ate fried tacos every time just before I went into labor (weird I know but that is how it worked out). Also you need to get up and get moving, walking helps. Lots of luck!

for my first daughter I walked up a flight for stairs.All together there was about 125 that's up and down.30 minuets later I was at the hospital.Second daughter was of course sex,But also you could try taking Castor oil with orange juice,going for a bumpy ride.most of all just try walking as much as you can.

It could help, but how far along are you? Walking in sand or up & down stairs may help. Other gals used to take castor oil in the old days!

I haven't heard if that does. But I know for a fact that walking up stairs and hot baths will. But be careful with the bath because you may not feel your water brake.
