I was told by a doula to start doing acupuncture and take rosehip at 37 weeks pg to help prevent going over 40 weeks and having to be induced. Anyone tried these things? [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

no. I would not do rosehip. I don't think acupuncture will hurt, might help. Or, start getting spa pedicures -- that induced labor for me. [ Reply | More

I think you should stop taking advice about your pregnancy from people who likley got the training on hte internet. And listen to your Dr. You should not be taking any herbs or having any procedures with out discussing with your OB. [ Reply | More
