cinnamon tea?

Just drank two glasses of cinnamon tea. Supposed to help induce labor. I'm 36wks and 1day gotta see what happens now.

Measuring 3 weeks ahead doesn't automatically mean your baby is actually 3 weeks ahead... Weight and lung maturity are completely different, but each to their own... In the USA they have now made 39 to 41weeks full term,  37 weeks is early term. This is to stop people going for elective c sections before 39 weeks as it poses more risks to the baby.

Natural induction methods don't work. If your baby was ready to come out he/she would be here. You're not even full term yet. I'm 40 weeks today and wouldn't try to force bg out no matter how uncomfortable I am.

Full term is 37 weeks but youre posing a risk to ur baby and their lungs. I had my son at 36 + and they considered him a late preterm..be patient

Why are you inducing so early? Full term is 39 weeks you really don't want a premmie. If you have a medical reason I'd talk to your doc before trying any old wives tricks. Take care xx

That baby will come out when its ready. Not healthy to try and bring your earlier into the world than when its ready.

You're not due yet,  the baby still has a month to go.

Why the rush?
