I am 40 weeks pregnant and have been in labor for 10 days now, my body is completly exhasted and sore from all the spuratic contractions. I can't seem to get them to be as close together and as strong as the hospital wants them to be. What can I do to make my contractions stronger and closer together?

hi-nipple stimulation is supposed to be the number one thing to bring on labor-(practice with your breast pump for a while)
then castor oil
sex
walking
eekk--good luck to you, Im 36 weeks and want this baby out now--I cant imagine going through what you are

Walk, go for a bumpy ride in the car, have you tried essential oils. Don't spend too long in a bath or shower(just what is necessary for hygeine) because that seems too slow the labour down more, see the doctor because you could have too many waters and the baby's head could be disengaging causing the longer labour.
