Acupressure
Some practitioners believe that acupressure [5] can help start labor. However, it is important that you discuss with a trained acupressure professional before applying acupressure to yourself.
If acupressure doesn’t get your labor going, it can still be an excellent way to alleviate pain and discomfort during labor.
Conclusion
It is best that you discuss with your doctor before trying anything that might induce labor. Your healthcare provider will tell you if there are any risks or possibly complications. Although most of these methods are folklore with little scientific evidence to it.
In most cases it is advisable to let your baby set their own birth dates rather than inducing it.
