Here are some ways to induce labor naturally
These methods may help ripen your cervix-making it soften, efface and dilate.
The natural labor induction methods we'll discuss are:

* Sex
* Food
* Nipple Stimulation
* Herbs
* Castor Oil
* Acupressure

Sex
You've heard it said before, but at nine months pregnant, you might not be as excited at the prospect as the man in your life.

Food
OK, now that we've tackled the big question, let's discuss something much easier to accomplish. I'm sure that at some point you've probably heard of this way as well.

Nipple Stimulation
This is one of the natural ways to induce labor that you may never have run across. Oddly enough, it is one of the most effective.

Herbs
Historically, the next topic on our list has been used worldwide by pregnant women. Before things like pitocin and cervidil were invented, midwives knew that certain herbs induce labor.


Castor Oil
Along the same lines as herbs, many oils can be used for inducing labor naturally. Some are taken in pill form whereas others are applied topically or swallowed in liquid form. Foremost among these is the practice of using castor oil to induce labor.

Acupressure
this next method is by far the most relaxing, comfortable one to try. If it doesn't work, you'll still be glad you tried.


The last idea I'd like to mention is a method that you are using every day without realizing it. Every time you walk, you are using one of the natural ways to induce labor. Yes, that's right. Walking is a time-honored method of speeding labor. It uses the forces of gravity to aid in ripening the cervix to prepare for the birth of your new baby. With every step you take to the bathroom, remember you're one step closer to labor

38 weeks & 4 days- Breast pump?




brwneyedir


Im 38 weeks & 4 days today. I go in the hospital for an induction on thursday evening. I want to try and get sum of my milk pumped and frozen so when i bring my baby home i have milk for her if I need some for on the go. Is it okay for me to get my pump tonight & start the process before I even deliver her? Thanks for the help!!


Answer
You shouldn't start pumping until atleast 2 weeks after the baby is born. Too much stimulation can cause your uterus to become hyper contracted. It also causes a reduction in the amount of "oxygen" getting to the baby.
