Yes. Don't do it. The only circumstances in which labor should be induced are when the health of the mother or the baby is endangered, and that should be done in a hospital with a good neonatal care unit. If you're trying to rush to the finish line for some reason, please be aware that "a couple of weeks give or take" can make a difference, sometimes a significant difference. Oddly enough, pregnancies which are interrupted at eight months have a worse prognosis than those that end within the seven to eight month range, all other factors being equal. But this is a small difference, and merely reinforces that it is best for the child to hang in there. Also, most methods of hastening labor raise the mother's risk for preeclampsia, which can progress to eclampsia, stroke, and death. If you're right on the verge, right at the end of your term, don't do anything stupid to hurry things along. You may not have your conception date exactly right for one thing, and also, some pregnancies last a few days longer-a week, ten days, no one knows why. There are ways to induce labor but they ALL place stress on the mother and the child which is easily managed in a state-of-the-art hospital, but harder to treat if you get the process going with some ungodly stimulant concoction with a chaser that produced clonic movement-I am giving you no clues-you would not be able to tell the ER attendants the exact concentration of what you took and things like that matter. In short...ask your doctor. Please.

Have sex (if yer in the mood to). I'm not trying to sound kinky or anything, but semen softens the membranes and a women's orgasm can bring on contraction. That speeds up labor and can bring it on as well. Do to sex, my son was 2 weeks early. Happy, healthy, and ready for life. 8lbs 3oz and 21.5 inches.

My sister went into labor with both of my kids moving the furniture around and having lots of sex. I know it sounds strange, but her doctor recommended it.
