You can try it all, but really baby won't come until he/she is good and ready. I've been in and out of false labour 3 times, and I've done everything in the book! Drinking Raspberry Leaf tea and walking are great things to be doing anyway though. They won't necessarily start your labour, but they can help make your labour faster and easier when it does start. Good luck! I hope neither of us has much longer to wait! My baby was first threatening to come pre-term, but now seems content to sit tight until the last minute!!

I know I posted this on the other conversation, but I'll put it here too. Here's the link to an article on natural induction (except for the stripping of membranes, which is not natural).

Try the raspberry leaf tea & accupressure. That accupressure sounds like it'll help! Good luck!
