Inducing Labor Naturally: Tips & Techniques


Question
During my first labor, my waters broke, 24 hours later no contractions.  I was put on pytocin.  I would like to avoid same situation this time around.  Anything I can do to make contractions happen?

Answer
hey thea, the most natural induction method is having sex..sperm is a prostaglandin, much like the "prostin" suppository that is used for inductions..
also, walking a ton!!! the baby will be head down and putting pressure on your cervix, which will help!!

good luck and im sure you will do awesome!!!
