BTDT- What are some things that may induce labor that has worked for you?

I am 37wks and my midwife advised that I try to naturally induce labor starting at 38wks so that they dont have to induce me medically (I have GD- so they dont want me to go past my due date) What are some things that has worked for you ladies?

FYI- My cervix is still closed but it is softening.

I had DS 13 days early. 2 days before he was born I had a pedi with a leg massage. I started showing signs of labor that night.

I didn't try it until the week I was due, but bouncing on the yoga ball helped DD descend just enough that I went into labor the next night.

Basically, I had the yoga ball in my living room and I sat on it watching tv. I would do 10 rotations to the left (like I was hula hooping) then 10 rotations to the right, then I would bounce lightly for 2 minutes. Repeated it for about 2 hours.

I went into labor about 22 hours later! Of course, it was two days before my due date by then.

I actually googled what to do and there was a youtube video lol Chat Icon

Good luck to you!!!
