My doctor sent me home dialated to 2 and told me to induce labor naturally. We have had sex 2 times, tried nipple stimulation and I ate some spicy food. Nothing. I dont want to drink castor oil. HELP!

well the sex is only going to help if you get an orgasm it will cause the uterus to contract the sperm help with the hormonal side but something else go to like costco or sams club or target or walmart grab a basket and walk up and down every isle pushing the basket throw something heavyish in it to add weight and make sure to go all over even if you go to more than one store with out buying anything it doesnt matter, go to the grocery store get some basics and lastly walk around the neighborhood if its nice enough outside just dont over due yourself so you have energy for labor and dont be a hero get the epidural at like 4 cm it will let your body relax and move labor along faster oh and another thing take hot baths/showers no bath if your water breaks only showers good luck and congrats

WALK WALK and WALK some more..make a day of walking all over...I have heard from a few friends that this works...but with my last baby my OB said he was going to help me along so he went to do a regular pelvic exam and told me to bear down. then he stretched my cervix a little and within an hour I was in labor! (I should also say that I wasnt due for another week and he said with my dialation I should have went into labor 3 days before my exam...my son was born 7 lbs 5 oz six hours later!)

Maybe perennial massage, foot massage (it stimulates something with your re-productive organs?) WALK WALK WALK! Doesn't the waiting SUCK?! Good luck to you, I still have 6 weeks, at least you are in the countdown of days!

Are you having contractions???
If yes, when they start again, take a HOT shower.
Aim the hot water on your lower back, where the contractions are. It intesifies them, and speeds them up.
Good luck.

Pitocin works great.
Why don't you just chill and deal with the fact that you are still pregnant.
