I know some women take a long time to dilate, and some are fast. What can a pregnant woman (while pregnant) to help become fully dilated when labor comes? Techniques? Classes? Excercise?

  4. Some will tell you to use casto oil or red raspberry leaf tea, but in both cases, it can cause more damage then help. I highly suggest you stay away from those, or at least talk about it with your doctor before you try it.
    Some others will say : eating pineapple, eating spicy foods, long walks, funny movies. And though it’s probably not true, you’ve got nothing to lose (I did eat 2 pineapples the week before going in labor, but not sure if there is a link though!)
    The only “proven” way is : SEX… there is something in your partner’s semen that can cause you to dilate.

    Good luck and congrats
