    Lots of jumping jacks, try basket ball, twisting and moving can get contractions going. Also good hot nasty sex, semen softens the cervix, nipple stimuli causes the release of hormones and orgasm if u can reach it starts contractions well. I just start jumping around and going crazy, it usually does the trick... sometimes holding newborns helps(and is said to be good luck) if you know someone with a newborn or young baby.

    I have had some success with acupuncture, but nothing else unfortunately...sorry...if your cervix is thin, dilated, and baby low, you could try castor oil, 4 ounces in OJ or a coke, and get a seat belt for your toilet b/c you're gonna have the runs, and sometimes that does it if your body is ready...won't work if your cervix isn't ready though...good luck! soon! soon!

    More sex, including nipple stimulation helps, but the baby will come when they're ready.
