S e x can induce labour naturally

MotherofJWE by MotherofJWE Speaking(April 2008) (rank 500+)

As far as suggestions to bring on labour s e x is probably the most effective if any, but you need to make sure that your husband is on top and that you raise your hips afterwards and let the semen sit around your cervix for a while so that

it has time to work.  Basically semen contains prostaglandin - a natural form of the stuff they sometimes give you to induce labour.  However this may not work if the time is not right, just as the gel won't work either.  Let me know if this helps

Re: Inducing Labour Naturally

Not worked for our other 4, but I have heard it is effective for some.  Labour can also be determined by where you are in your cycle, so they say that you should keep track of where your cycle would be, even through pregnancy.  That has been true for me so far.

by the way, love how you managed to avoid being reported for rude word violations!  Very creative! lol.

Re: Inducing Labour Naturally

Hi there, this is helpful, however I think you would get better results if you wrote a little more complex advice.  This is more suitable as a posting in the 'short advice' group, or a comment.  If you are going to write about this particular topic, it would probably get better feedback/votes if you add the many other ways that people could try to induce their pregnancy safely and naturally.

It is also a great idea to do a bit of a search to see if the advice is already on the site, and whether or not you have something new to offer on the topic.  Here are some handy articles about writing great advice that are already on the site.  I think you will find the tips very helpful.
