Ok, I need help on naturally inducing labor. Does anyone know if the old wives' tales work? (sex, spicy food, etc?) TIA! [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

I've heard that eggplant works. I'm willing to eat a garlicky eggplant parm and follow it up with some booty! [ Reply | More ]

For me, sex and long walks worked to induce contractions during the last week or so of pregnancy, but the contractions would be every 15-20 minutes, then fade away without causing labor. I think if you are ready to go, they can trigger labor (so what's the point?), but won't do much if your body isn't ready. [ Reply | More ]
