xp: going into labor "tricks" as told by a nurse

So in CB class yesterday, the delivery nurse teaching the course starting to ask if we knew of this restaurant in the area that's famous for it's eggplant parm that sends ladies into labor. We all said yes. She started laughing, and said in all her years, it's not the actual eggplant or hormones that sends ladies into labor, it's the diarreah that you get from eating it! She said go to the greasiest hot dog place you can (the Varsity in ATL) and get 2 chili dogs, an onion ring, and a frosted orange. THAT will send you into labor via diarreah, too.We all had a huge laugh over this little old lady talking about it!

    That is hilarious!!  But, I would have a panic attack just ordering at the Varsity, too high pressure for me! I don't know if I would want to go into labor via diarrhea on purpose...but I guess you do things you wouldn't normally do when you're desperate!

    haha...my friend in GA actually just went to that restaurant for the "going into labor" eggplant parm! If you go into labor within 48 hours, they give you a gift certificate lol baby didn't come until a week after though Stick out tongue

    I found with DS that none of the tricks worked for sending me in to labor. I think it's all old wives tales. Baby will come when they are ready and only then :( I wish they had worked I was 4 days late with DS and it felt like eternity.

    That's what Castor Oil does. BTW, I DON'T recommend the Castor Oil. My friend tried Castor Oil and her baby passed meconium. Castor Oil can make the baby's bowels loose, too, and it's not the only reason for meconium, but there is a link, so most professionals say not to do it.
