With some weeks for delivery various thoughts are going in my mind. I want a normal delivery and for this I want to prepare from now itself. I am just wondering if there are some natural ways in which labor can be induced. I want to be prepared as I have heard that if one does not have natural labor many a times doctor suggests for C-section.
i know that some physical movement helps.
but you will already know about this. i have heard that some tea is helpful. i don't remember which tea. but it is not the regular tea that we take at home.
ramdev baba's medicine shop may also have something for this.
I have heard that castor oil works though I have not tried it on my own.
Taking walk gently might help in starting contractions. And being in upright position puts pressure on the cervix leading it to dilation.
Have heard that there are some yoga asan which helps. Try to find out from some yoga expert.
I have heard from many that massage does help in inducing labor. But never try to do anything on your own. Best would be to consult a massage therapist.
