i should say dont ask me as im 40+ 7 days and getting induced tuesday if i dont go into labour before (fat chance) but my cervix is soft ripe and central 2 cm dilated, ive been taking evening primrose oil tablets for the past three weeks two per day 1050mg, and sometimes insert them into v____a up next to cervix at bedtime, sometimes rub the oil into cervix (not easy to do unless you can reach, i just got desparate, they say walking helps ripen the cervix as the head presses on it, i lost some plug two weeks agoi had false labour now nothing.

I heard s_x works but my husband wasn't interested. I know the last month sucks but most doctor's won't induce you until you are past your due date. My friend was induced at 37 weeks and her son's lungs were not fully developed. He could have died. I wouldn't want to take that risk unless it was medically necessary to induce.
