I'm from UK.. I've given this tip to alot of friends over here and its worked for all of them who were over 38 weeks pregnant, some have had their babies before that stage. I'm not sure how it works though. I only wish I could manage to drink it again with this pregnancy though. My waters stopped leaking and the contractions stopped :o( does anyone know if light and brown sugar taste the same? I dont know if I bought the same sugar this time as I didnt have a problem drinking this stuff 15 years ago. ↑
I drank castor oil and it didnt work i was 3 cm and all it did was make me poop a lot and i have never heard it will harm your baby but i didnt think it worked so i would never do it again! ↑
My mom washed walls with my brother, and went into labour that night. My sister drank a glass of prune juice in the am, and had a baby boy the next day. Both of them think that's what did it. I've also heard spicy food, driving on a bumpy road and lots of walking (especailly stairs) works too. Good luck!! ↑
read all this stuff last night i am 40 weeks and 6 days today nothing has worked tried walking,sex,pineapple,sitting on birthing ball for hours raspberry leaf tablets and today tried brown sugar drink i refuse to try castor oil just the thought makes me gag!! my first baby and just feel like its never going to come out(i know it will of course) i know i know they come when they're ready but i just want to hold my baby now rather than carry it about inside.thats not selfish is it? the brown sugar trick can u repeat it and if so how long do you leave in between trys u said it can take up to 48 hours shpuld i leave it that long beforw i try again? ↑
and heres some "real" advice getting back to the question, i believe that you cant rush nature. let it take its course. you will be much relieved to know that it will be alright in the end. good luck to ya. ↑
I don't know if this will work for everyone, but I took a warm bath. Although I had contractions most of my pregnancy, they got really close after that and I had the baby about 3 1/2 hours later, my labor was about 45 min. ↑
Just let him come natural then you will feel more calm about his health after he is born! my doctor told me that nipple stimulation for 2 long can also cause shortness of oxygen and is not good for the baby!, however he did tell me it seems silly but get on all fours like a puppy and pant real hard for a minute and then repeat every 5 minutes, he said it works and maybe i was so eager to believe him that it put me in hard labor with in 3 hours of our visit, but it worked for me ↑
Just tried the brown sugwr thing at 1 pm i will let you know if he works for me. Nothing else has, not the castor oil (yuk) not pineapple, sex, primose oil, nipple stimulation, rasberry leaf tes, walking, up and down stairs. He is just happy where he is. Good luck ladies ↑
does anyone know a reliable source of information regarding castor oil? That suggestion is among nipple stimulation, sex for the semen and for the female orgasm, accupressure on the back of the hand between thumb and forefinger as well as inner leg about 3 inches above ankle bone ... I bought Castor oil, but am afraid to go on with it because it doesn't seem to be for consumption and there are seriously mixed reveiws here about it! I'm only 37 and a half weeks and would give just about anything to be able to just let this happen when nature decides, but unfortunately I have Preeclampsia and my blood pressure is so bad that me and baby are going to be at risk if I don't give birth soon. My doctor is letting me ride it out as long as I promise to spend 90% of my time HORIZONTAL - well I've been lying down most of every day for 3 weeks now and am OVER IT! The doctor wants to induce. I've got the weekend to make this happen .... hmm, "make" ... seems so wrong to try to control some thing so natural. anyway I guess I'm saying to all of you who just want the baby out, be glad you're not me - wishing baby could go to term for optimal health but being denied that option because of your own health. peace out. ↑
My wife is in the bedroom , 10 days after her due date . We've tried everything , and its not even 9.30 am . It occurred to us that everyone is having sex , raspberry, pineapple, nipple stimulation , castor oil, curry and whatever you happen to be doing when it starts, thats what you believe triggerred it . I think its a self perpetuating myth ..... anyway , I'm off back to make tea, fruit salad and , well you know .... ↑
I ate some Wasabi Funyons lol and they got my contractions going away - this was after doing everything "normal" natural induction methods ie, evening prim, castor oil and Hot apple cider(worked with the 1st 2) sex, nipple stim, enemas, blue cohosh (5 drops up to 10 drops) or put in the enima bottle, areobics (very light but faster paced than normal) walking up hills, nothing worked until Wasabi flavored chips...lol weird huh ↑
Hi everyone, I just had a glass of brown sugar and it gave my little one hick-ups! Very cute! I'll let you all know if I have any progress, I'm 38 weeks tomorrow. ↑
Hi! I am 38 wks pregnant, 2 centimeters dilated and 80% effaced and have tried almost everything but the castor oil (Dr. told me not to do it) and the brown sugar drink. Going to try it right now. Will keep you posted ↑
hi i am 40 weeks as well-if i dont labor by thursday they will induce me i dont want to be induced as i heard its not that pleasant. i have been spending the last 2 hours cleaning my house -will see-really the best is it to come naturally i understand the frustration i am with you!!! ↑
BLACK LICORICE is suposed to help with getting things moving
1/4 - 1/2 cups BALSAMIC VINIGAR I found this on the net it has similar outcomes as caster oil but not as strong. I am 39 weeks and have tried both and they have not helped. maybe they will work for someone ↑
It's my first child and i'm 130lbs, and 38weeks. I was just wondering what is the brown sugar thing? and has it worked on anyone yet?. I'm only asking because i'm very uncomfortable now and would like all this to be over. Any help........i would be very thankful. :) ↑
I am 30 wks. and my mom told me that one way to bring on labor (not that I am tryn to yet) is eat a box of Kraft Macaroni and cheese and add A1 steak sauce. She said you have to use these two products ONLY. She said everyone she knows that did this went into labor with in 24-48 hrs. She also said you have to eat as much as you can and the more A1 the better your chances for it to work. ↑
