Labor Cookies

amandajb1

So I am 38 weeks tomorrow and more than ready to have this baby, I have been suffering with pelivic pain from Pubic symphis Dysfunction since 20 weeks.

So tonight I made labor cookie, tomorrow I plan on eating them and then seeing my midwife to get my membranes stripped!

Saw the chiropractor today, he said I am nice and loose so hopefully this will happen soon!

Anyone else doing anything to hopefully jump start labor?

Good luck!  I hope it works - I don't have the recipe but I'm sure I can find it somewhere online, maybe I'll do that for fun this weekend :P

Is this the gingersnap type cookie?  I found this :https://www.justmommies.com/pregnancy/labor-and-childbirth/labor-inducing-cookie-recipe

I may try.  Ha ha.

I made labor cookies and the eggplant parm recipe that is supposed to start labor.  I also had accupuncture 2 days ago.  I've had more contractions since doing these things, but was only 1cm dialated at my OB appt yesterday.  I think walking a lot and waiting for the LO to be ready is all I have left to try.

At my doctors appointment on Monday the nurse (who feels bad for my late pregnancy misery) told me she "induced" her son herself by using her breast pump.  She said she would put it on for 15 minutes then take it off for 15 minutes & repeat.  She did that for about 2 hours she said and gave birth that evening to her son.  I haven't tried it (mostly because I don't have my breast pump yet) but when I get it if I haven't been delivered already I am thinking I may give it a try! lol
