Help!

Went to the doctor again today, and STILL nothing has changed. I think at this point we are looking at going past my due date again. I need help from all those mothers out there...is there anything you've heard that kick-starts going into labor? My doctor recommended taking Evening Primrose Oil tablets or having sex (sorry to put that out there so bluntly). Any other suggestions from anyone? My main fear is going too long past my due date and having a really big baby that has to come out by c-section.

Thanks for the help!

Funny. Jen and I were talking about you last night. She heard of drinking Castro oil(the medicine kind)I agree but also I have heard of eating Eggplant Parmesan. I hope it works. I think that you should do this on April 16th in memory of me.

I've also heard eating really spicy food too! Go eat a spicy meal and then take a brisk walk around your subdivision!! hehe

I've also heard of castor oil. go on babycenter.com and go to birth boards and then your birth month of April '07 or March '07. I'm sure there are plenty of threads of tips to get labor going....I'm on my dec'06 board still and I remember tons of posts about it.
