  • I googled it and it says to sit on a bowl of hot coffee over the toilet and the caffeine and steam are suppose to thin the cervix and will start labor ! Sounds wierd it would make your lady parts smell good though!!! Lol!
  • This is crazy. How is the steam supposed to get up by my cervix?

  • Caffeine via steam?? I call bullshit. Why doesn't she try having sex? I hear that works

  • I have know clue sounds dumb to me but my sister's friend swears by it she said she did it and with in a few hours she was in labor and had her baby!
  • Long story short baby daddy is an ass and she is no longer with him so sex isn't a thing she can do at the moment!
  • I'd much rather just drink a cup.

  • These things always make me laugh. First of all who tried this in the first place and decided to tell pregnant women that it helps? Second, the baby will come when it's ready and people always attribute whatever thy were doing a few hours before labor to putting them in labor.
    Can't figure out a siggy for my life, but just in case: DD 6/11/04 DS 8/13/08 DD 10/4/13
  • Sounds like it would earn her a trip to the ER at least.....

    yeah, what if you get a steam burn on your labia??

    She'd start jumping up and down, maybe throwing her into labor?

    couldn't she just flick the ol' bean or something instead?


    But isn't it the semen that is supposed to help start labor?

  • If I used espresso, do you think it would speed the process up??? Maybe the kid would just fall out.

    Oh I don't know. I thought it was muscle contractions from orgasm.
    supposedly the seamen softens the cervix

    Yes, the prostaglandins help to soften the cervix....when its ready.

  • Don't be puttin any hot items by your lady bits as I would imagine you might need a trip to the ER and not for labor! Who comes up with this stuff? Probably the same person who invented the placenta teddy bear (eyes are burned! Why did I google it?)
