No help to you OP, but I have a friend who has a reputation...
His voice has brought on labour in 8 pregnancies. He visits, then the next day the woman starts labour. He left my house at 12am one night, I began contracting 4 hours later.
22 months later with baby 2, I rang him at 8pm I began contracting 10 hours later.
Wish I could give you his phone number to help out!Who made hogs and dogs and frogs?

I hate to lower the tone... and not having had kids I am curious. If you are having contractions while having sex, is it more fun for the man?? I don't mean the fact that you're in pain (I'm not one to judge though)... rather because it is tightening? Or am I just misunderstanding how contractions work?
im sure someone will be along in a minute to tell me im wrong,
but... as far as im aware it doesnt work like that, from what i remember of contractions they tighten your stomach but not inside your bits... its not like a pelvic clench (clench clench clench - sorry... cant hear those words without doing a few)
having said that though.. once the real contractions have started the last thing your going to want is sex!
some blokes have this really inflated opinion of themselves and are convinced that by having sex during pregnancy they will hurt or touch the baby with their willys...(fat chance! lol) well once labour has started i guess this could actually happen! lol i cant imagine anyone being able to ignore established labour for sex though...
i had some braxton hicks contractions (commonly known as practice ones) in the last few weeks before delivery and i never felt like sex during those....
however when i was up for it as soon as i orgasmed the BH contractions would then start (just so i couldnt fall asleep afterwards like my lucky OH!)

My daughter was wanting her baby to come, so she asked me what to do, bearing in mind I brought the labour on when I was carrying her.
So I gave her the hottest curry she could stand, I took her out in the car to a place that has lots of hump back bridges.
So I drove over about 10 times, her stomach was doing somersalts (spelling, I think) this was in the evening about 10pm, by 11 pm she started labour, the baby came about 4 hours after.
But if you want a easier way than the above lol, then by some jasmin oil, its quite expensive, but does the trick.
Run a bath, pour a little in the bath, soak in the bath with the water coming over your belly, then after the bath, rub a tiny bit over the belly, if it doesnt work the first night, then do it again the next.
I did this also with daughters 2nd baby, as she didnt want to go over the humps again, I swear to you, the contractions started when she was in the bath.
She had the baby in approx 2 hours.
Apparently there is something in the jasmin oil that can start the contractions, but only to be used when your very near your due date, or your late, whatever you do, never use Jasmin oil like this if you still have weeks to go.0 -
I have 3 kids, and with my last baby i tried a really hot curry and i ended up all night vomiting ewwwwwww.Then i tried fresh pineapple, i ate sticks of it al day and went into labour that night.Dunno if it was the fruit or just sheer fluke on my part. Hope baby comes soon2021 Please Be A Better Year0
