hi, i must wait for your natural labour pains, because in some patients labour pain starts at 37 weeks and in some patients it take time,may be in 40, or 42 weeks. so let it be on nature, as God has written, one more thing please dont take any medications or herbal or any other treatment,it may cause complications to you or your baby and you definately dont want that. so when ever you feel contractions you should start walking, even if u r in room,walking and little exercise can help.
i hope you got your answer. God bless u and ur little one, who is waiting to come out. .

I think the doctor knows best and there must be a reason why he doesn't want to induce labor...I wouldn't take anything to induce labor, I would let the doctor handle everything for me....good luck....hope u have a healthy baby......

In ayurveda there is a medicine SUKUMARAKRUTHAM GHEE available in kerala.(kottackal pharmacy or oushadi pharmacy etc). You must consume one teaspoon in the morning and one teaspoon in the night before sleep.Usually ladies start this medicine during the eighth or nineth month of pregnancy.It actually acts as a lubricant which facilitates normal delivery as seen.Take proper meals and also consult with an efficient ayurvedic person about this

YOur doctor is right. Induction is generally thought onlyforoverdue babies. Your contractions can be due to there being a boy in the womb, who is anxious to see the outside world. Castor oil is the best easily available remedy, from 100 to 200 ml dose is taken depepending on mothers constitution. The details of how to take it are described at http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/ayurvedaonline/message/8718 IN case castor oil is not available to you, some more herbs are also listed there. Unless you are in labour pains, do not expedite the event. If herbs described in above link are not available to you, take castor oil in milk only. Since contractions are already felt, even 100 ml dose may be adequate. Your apana vata is perhaps vitiated, causing early contractions. In case you wish to reduce contractions, take Garbhpal ras, 2 tabs twice a day after meals. These tablets are available online from ayurvedic pharmacies. Phal Ghrut about 1 tsp in milk, twice a day will also help to subside the contractions. Phal ghrut can be applied to belly, pelvis are or inside of thighs.
