How desperate would you get?

Just curious, none of this is an indication that I'm going to use any of these things to progress my labor. Just curious if people REALLY do these things:

Laxatives (not inculding castor oil, I mean just any laxative in general)

Enemas

Chewing a tbs of Oregano/Parsley/Basil (gag me)

Galloping on a curb.. wtf

 

Would any of you actually do any of these, and what are some other ones you've heard that just sound crazy?

    I enjoy a good curb gallop from time to time. It's good exercise.

    I'm due in a few days, Christmas actually. I'm guilty of Googling natural ways to induce labor, but in the end I would not attempt any of it. My cousin said she took castor oil and she went into labor, but everytime she had a contraction she would poop a lil. I also seen that alot of people use black and blue cohosh to induce labor.

    WTH is curb galloping?

    And no, I'm not about to try OWTs. Real actual methods for natural inducment, sure. A bunch of lame far reaching OWTs, no.

    I found curb galloping while reading an article on hisboyscanswim.com.

    There is even a video Confused I guess you gallop, on a street curb. To me, it just sounds dangerous and dumb.

    yeah I will not be trying any of those things - maybe I would try things like sex or nipple stimulation but that's about the extent of it most likely.

    That is quite possibly the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Why would anyone believe that would induce labor? You might as well put on a tutu and do a gig on your head.

    I think I would die of laughter if I ever happened upon a pregnant women galloping on a curb. I might also call the cops just in case she was in need of a ride to the peanut gallery.
