You are 36 weeks pregnant so can you try natural ways to induce labor?

Based on my research you can try a fast. No food, and even try to take very little liquid. This was based on the fact that in Israel, there is a religious holiday that requires fasting and the rates of baby delivery are much higher the next day compared to any other day of the year. You could also take black and blue cohosh, or manually open the cervix. You can find information on these techniques by searching the internet - these are the serious ways to bring it on. You could also ask your doctor for prosglandin (spelling?) which will thin the cervix. My doctor doesn't want to do it, but babies are full term at 38 weeks, so I don't see the problem. Why wait until you are uncomfortable and the baby is huge? They can gain that fat from nice healthy breast milk. I had my son at 36/37 weeks and the delivery was great and he was healthy. Good luck

I took long walks. There are wives' tales (hang curtains, scrub the floor, castor oil), but in general it is best to let nature take its course.

Vinegar will not induce labor. Please don't think about inducing pre-term labor. There's a reason why elective inductions before 38 weeks are such a controversy now. Contact your prenatal health care provider to discuss your concerns and the reasons that you want to go into labor preterm.
Can Castor oil induce labor when your 38 weeks pregnant?
Congratulations on your pregnancy. Don't use castor oil to try and induce labor as the side effects are not worth it, plus there isn't any actual proof that is will work. If you are looking for safe and effective, painless way to induce labor at home then maternity acupressure may be for you. Check out this website, http://yourmaternityresource.com/category/maternityacupreesure/ I bought the book, only $29 and it worked great, well worth the cost of the book. I was 41 weeks along, the best part it actually helped reduce the pain of labor and it was well worth the cost of the book to finally meet my beautiful baby boy. I would suggest that you check with your OB/GYN before trying to induce labor at only 39 weeks though.
