Really its anything that makes you use the bathroom (number 2) With my first pregnancy, I drank a whole bottle of castro oil, GROSS!!! I would take a table spoon and chase it with lemonade..STRONG lemonade. I still cant drink lemonade and my sons four years old! I think ex-lax would work. Anything that would make you bear down, like...using the bathroom...make sure your at home when you take it though...you'll be going non-stop. It didn't work for me, but my best friend did it and went into labor 2 hours after she took it! Another good thing to do to relax you and allow you to dialate is sex...OH YEA! This may sound gross, but doggy style sex will do it too! HAHA!! Have fun..but dont combine these two things..things could get yucky!

It will just make you poo a whole lot, there is no sure way to get yourself to go into labor, I would not use exlax though. Try walking and squatting with contractions (even Braxton-Hicks). That would help more.

That will not help put you in labor. It won't be good to dehydrate yourself right now if you are so close. The best wives tales are to go walking to help you along. Sex or nipple stimulation is also helpful. Just be patient, the day will be here soon. LOL.

your trying to induce labor? 1st - try sex.

For my wife, a nice Italian diner with a glass of red wine did the trick. She hadn't had any drinks for the entire pregnancy and was 2 weeks past her due date - we just left the dr appt, she was frustrated and broke down and had one glass of wine with dinner. Less than 12 hours later we were in the hospital. Maybe it was just a coincidence? I figure it helped her relax.

Oh the oil is SIIIICK! I have 2 boys. My first was induced with sex. The Dr. had actually recommended this. Have sex, let him go in you and lay there for a little bit. This is supposed to soften the cervix. Yay, huh? Good luck!

Oh please don't do it. You'll find yourself stuck to the toilet, but not in labor. Sex works wonders. :)
