Yes I used nipple stimulation and my daughter was born right on time.I also had lots of sex too! The semen really helps aid in starting those contractions! So do both and you will be well on your way.Congratulations on the baby!

I walked alot and I think that made my labor faster. Nipple stimulation made me have contractions, but they ended up breaking my water to get past 3 1/2 cm. If you have a pump, pump for like 2-3 min and by the next day you should have contractions. I did that and my milk also came in faster than the nurses thought they would. Best of luck to you. Merry Christmas and happy holidays.

Yes, i heard about a very pregnant woman who stimulated her breasts. The contractions started soon after that.
Swimming a longer distance is a simple and good way as well. But it's hard to do.

I have never done it, but heard many great things from others. It works by releasing oxytocin. And then there's clitoral stimulation (ie orgasm), which also releases oxytocin as well as endorphins to help. Acupuncture can also do the trick!
