I'm 10.5 weeks with #2, with my 1st I tried it all...pineapple, raz tea, and even super fun castor oil. He came 5 days late.
*If you do castor oil, I read making scrambled eggs with it. I didn't try, but still have issues drinking tropical punch kool-aid.
I say eat the pineapple, drink the tea, it's yummy. Stay as active as possible doing last minute prepping and enjoy the few days of free time. Little one will come "right on time" (which I know ***** to hear).

My mum swore by hot baths and raspberry tea. Worked every time for her.

Nope!! I tried literally everything. Pineapples, pineapple juice, sex, nipple stimulation, stairs, birthing ball, I drank castor oil a few times.. Baby will come when baby is ready! I had mine at exactly 41 weeks.

People say those tricks work but nobody really knows why they work for some people and not others. Good luck though!
