How can i induce my labor at 37 weeks at home?
Accupressure You may give accupressure to the area of “Spleen 6”, four fingers above the inner ankle on the shinbone. It is a tender spot and you may want to research this to do it correctly.

Hi, I tried everything to induce labour – from pineapple to hot curries and raspberry leaf tea but nothing worked! I still ended up going 2 weeks over and having to be induced and even then still needing a c section as he just wasn’t ready!! (or he was to comfy in there!!!) Trust me just let things happen naturally as they really don’t come until they are ready!! Good luck and just enjoy those last few weeks!!
