Im almost full term now and so done with waiting honestly. Keep reading different things online about natural ways to bring on labour. Curious if this actually works for anyone.
Please check with your gynac before, because in some cases like low placenta or other issues it is advised to avoid. Mine had told me to be careful for medical reasons. So dont go by general talk, your doctor knows your specific situation.
There is a common belief it can help nudge things along near term, but it is not a guaranteed thing. At 38 weeks if your pregnancy is normal and your gynac hasnt advised against it, it is generally fine. If you have any complication or restriction, definitely ask your doctor first.
I was past 38 weeks and just stayed active and relaxed, baby came when ready. People say lots of things induce labour but honestly baby has its own timing. As long as your doctor says all is well, dont overthink it.
