Has anybody had luck with - ahem - naturally inducing labor?

Now, I'm not talking about castor oil and raspberry leaf tea here. I practically jumped DH last night. It was rather difficult as I'm so freaking huge right now, but we managed it. I'm prepared to have sex every night this week if it really will help. Anybody else had luck with this?

    No, but I'm about to start trying.  I am so uncomfortable these days I can't imagine going three more weeks!

    I've read conflicting stories but I'm hoping it works for us too!

    DH won't come near me. Especially since I've been 2cm dilated for the past 2 weeks. Looks like I'm on my own. :(

    Dh and I have done the deed 4 times in the past few days and aside from a few cramps the first time- there has been a whole lot of nothing going on over here! 

     Ugh!

    Sex has not worked for us. We've tried different positions and used Primrose Oil as lube - NOTHING! No contractions, not even BH. We keep trying, but now its mostly because I know that there won't be any for atleast 6 weeks after baby and I am trying to make up for it.

    I was supposed to be a May 2012 Mom and for the last couple weeks I have been trying everything. I haven't had any luck with sex yet, sometimes I'll get a little crampy after but I'm definitely still pregnant!

    Bummer. I was hoping for more positive news. Oh well. I guess we'll just keep trying since it will be at least 6 weeks once the baby finally does arrive. Thanks!

    We're giving this a try too...it can't hurt, right? 

    Maybe some of the 0-3 moms would be better able to answer positively...I mean, if it worked, they wouldn't be here, right? LOL...

    Just be careful with using the breast pump and make sure you speak with your Dr first.  Most don't like you using nipple stimulation w/out being on a monitor to see how the LO is doing.

    Sex didn't work for us. My water did break the night we combined a very spicy sandwich with red raspberry leaf tea and a foot massage.

    Yes! I got cleared by my doc after 39 wks with a warning to really pay attention to contractions and movement and def not over-do it.

    I use it for a few times a day, but either for a few minutes or until I feel a contraction. Then I stop immediately.

    Hasn't worked for me and I'm 41wks1day!!! Ugh. I'm trying everything :( Sex was SO uncomfortable for me the other night, definitely not trying it again. I guess it might work for some, but definitely not me!
