lol, nothing works, unless you are about to go into labour anyway, then its a coincidence - unfortunately lol x

Escarr , how and where are you doing it? Hands and ankles?  How often are you doing it and how long for?

I find it incredibly boring lol.

I've just ordered some clary sage to try that!

just to update on this, tried the accupressure its ment to be effective within 48hours.... still here xx

I don't fancy 8 pineapples a day for that one to work.  i agree nothing work unless you are ready anyway. I'm going to try from Monday (due Wed) but we will see

Clare 39 weeks

My friend swears by fresh pineapple so I'm starting to eat it from tomorrow! Her baby arrived a week early.

 they have all sorts of different pressure poins iv tried the ankle one and the hand one.

nowt worked. sex put me in week long labour lol

i have tried everything going apart from dangerous stuff like castor oil that im not willing to try. and i have gone overdue everytime so i can safely say nothing works until baby is ready to come on their own.

only thing that ever got me close was evening primrose oil and even then was no sure thing i would have come ontime but my cervix was soft and ready to go when i got induced a week early which is what epo is supposed to do and my cervix has never been soft before established labour starting before.

yeah i read about that  - is it the bit between your thumb and finger that u press or is there other points. let us know if anything happens

iv tried loads of things, the most effective and the safest is meant to be accupressure which iv tried doin tonight so ill let ya no how tha 1 works lol xx

anyone ever tried any of the natural ways to induce labour and if so what worked for you.
