Women in the last few weeks of pregnancy tend to think of nothing but labor.
At least most of us feel this way. I guess I can't speak for those who have super easy pregnancies where they feel like they are "glowing" and empowered.
I just feel like my body has been taken over.
Anyway, if you search "induce labor naturally" on Google, you're going to get all sorts of ideas.
Such as:
The same way you got pregnant
Fresh pineapple
Castor Oil
Walking
Birthing balls
Acupuncture
Acupressure
Essential Oils
Red Raspberry Leaf Tea
Spicy Food
So, here's what I'm going to do. I'm going to try them. Well, some of them. I'm not willing to take castor oil and I can't afford to try acupuncture, but I'll try others.
Then, I'll let you know how it went.
Kay?
Day one:
Fresh Pineapple.
I just cut one up:
I'll finish it by the end of the day and tomorrow I'll bore you with the results.
"Luuuccckkky."

I am bringing you castor oil. If you are that effaced, a tiny dose will get you cramping. LOL!
