My midwife said it can help. Sex can too. The hormone that's in prostaglandin gel which is used to induce labor is similar to that which is in semen.xxxx

Well I've heard nipple stimulation ,sex ,walking can all bring on labor.To be honest the only thing that ever helped me out was walking.Basically you never know if these methods are going to work but, you can always try what ever you feel up too.I was never overdue with either of my kids just to the point where I couldn't stand being pregnant anymore.More or less the baby will come when he/she is ready.Good Luck and congrats to you and your wife.

My doctor actally stopped me and my hubby from playing around because it was actually causing preterm labor. Read the books, talk to your ob and if in doubt dont play unless you are ready to give birth.... When i knew i was ready i went bowling... Okay probably not recomended for the normal prego person who isnt in shape, but i bowled the whole time i was prego, up untill 32 weeks, and at 39 i went bowling, got those contractions goin, even though the end result was a c-section(BIG BABY!!) Everything is well now, and if you think your ready to pop that kid out!!! DO IT!!! semen will also help soften the cervix, helping with dialation, and a tikle of the breats may even help getting those contrations going! GOOD LUCK AND CONGRATS!!!

Stimulating your nipples releases the hormone oxytocin. this might properly be a organic hormone that's believed to play a functionality in bringing on exertions. Pitocin is a synthetic style of this hormone that's used to set off exertions interior the scientific institution. this methodology might artwork, yet takes time. it rather is terrific while you're already exhibiting signs and indicators of exertions. do no longer attempt nipple stimulation devoid of conversing on your wide-unfold practitioner. Many will purely enable you to try this interior the scientific institution, on an identical time as the toddler is being monitored. that's because of the fact stimulating the nipples might reason stable contractions, that may impact the toddler's coronary heart fee. consequently, you prefer to be monitored whilst attempting this

If her body is ready to give birth, nipple stimulation may possibly bring on labor. Worth a shot.

it sure does, try it for fifteen minutes at a time,make sure to stimulate the entire nipple area, not just the end of the nipple.not to get gross or anything but multiple orgasm can get it started too. especially clitoral stimulation, these orgasm tend to be a little harder,and cause the contractions to be harder. be prepared to spend a little time in this.the contractions can start and stop. but keep trying. good luck!

yes , the nipples have some kind of conection to the uterus and when stimulated will help bring on contractions , try rubbing her nipples while she is soaking in a hot bath that will help the uterus ( which is a muscle ) relax and it is easier to stimluate.

Actually it can help, because somehow its all connected. The uterus will contract because of stimulation, just as breastfeeding helps your uterus return to a normal size faster.
Congratulations!

For some people it does work. If your up to it lol. Having intercourse helps. The semen helps soften the cervix to promote labour.
Good luck.
