My husband massaged my cervix for about 20 mins. I dialated from 1 1/2 to 4 cm. I had my son the next morning. About 4 1/2 hours later. Make sure if you do this have him wash his hands really good and don't put too much pressure on your cervix. I think you will go into labor today or tommorrow though. Usually when you are late it is only 2-3 days later until you naturally start labor. Good luck!

First of all, what is the rush! Trust me, after your first sleep deprived week, you'll be wondering what the hurry was! Second of all, you will miss being pregnant. You may not think that now, but you will feel an emptiness once the baby is out. so enjoy feeling that little life inside you now. Thirdly, if you really are in a hurry, sex, sex and more sex. It isn't fun or comfortable, but it worked twice for me. I also walked A LOT! Not only may it bring on labour, but it will make delivery easier too. Good luck!!

Walking will do it. My sister actually went into labor by laughing to hard she was watching a funny movie not intentionally but it happened. Most Dr. will tell you to walk thats the safest but only if its near your due date. Make sure the baby is full term and healthy first.

A nice hot bath (obviously not HOT, at the right 'hot' temperature for you)
Nice 'spicy' hot curry (or anything spicy really is said to work, I never found that helped though, but did give me a dicky tummy and you wouldnt want to go into labour with a dicky tummy)
Rosemaryhip tea
Good, hard, doggy style sex

Walking and sex can both help progress the labor, also off roading. We were affraid of getting stuck in the mud so we just found som really bumpy country roads instead. It could be coincidence but my water broke that afternoon.

Sorry to say but you cant. The only way you are going to go into labour is if the doctors or midwives induce you or your baby is ready and your body goes naturally into labour. Just hang in there the baby will come when its ready. Good luck

A long walk, sex...these seem to be the typical things for inducing labor when you're to term.

You don't want to do anything to induce labor.You could endanger your health and health of the baby. Talk to your doctor.

Why would you want to do that, if your baby isn't ready to be born you will have an awfully long delivery process.
you don't tell the baby, the baby tells you when they are ready.
Good luck!!!!
