Default Re: natural ways to induce labor

Those are good I like how the one said that the placenta doesn't have an expiration date...as long as you are eating, the baby is still being nourished. The body is an amazing thing. Same with breastfeeding. The body produces what the baby NEEDS.

Another really cool thing is that the amniotic fluid keeps getting produced...it changes every 3 or 4 hours for the baby, and if your water breaks, it is still being produced until you birth the baby! I didn't know that.

Actually the Hypnobirth instructor told us about a mother whose water broke on her 20th week! She was put on bed rest and had to lay with her pelvis kind of tipped up, and she ended up carrying the baby to full term or almost full term. The amniotic fluid kept being produced even though it was not intact. So amazing!!!!

The day you deliver, outside will be warm. Your baby will arrive in the evening.After a labor lasting approximately 5 hours, your child, a girl, will be born. Your baby will weigh about 8 pounds, 15 ounces, and will be 17-1/2 inches long. This child will have blue eyes and dark hair.
