With most women going into the hospital for labor and delivery, there is a growing segment of women who are looking for something different that the hospital model. Pregnant women are now looking at birthing centers, midwifery practices and home births as viable alternatives to the now traditional hospital birth. Many women want to induce labor at home.
I, myself, labored at home and then had my daughter at a birthing center. When inducing at home, there are several methods you can try. Walking has been known to put women into labor. I tried this method quite a bit and I think it primed my body for labor quite nicely.
You can also try maternity acupressure to induce labor. I’ve heard it’s had amazing results. It is similar to acupuncture does not use needles. Instead, hands and thumbs are applied to pressure points or meridians to release energy. It works!
