Ways to Induce Labor Naturally????

Here I am, 39 weeks and almost 4 days pregnant.  I have gone further with this pregnancy than I have had with my previous pregnancy (my water broke at 39 weeks and 1 day).  While there are things that I will miss about being pregnant, I am excited to meet the baby.  I'm curious if the baby will look like me or dad, if there will be a lot of hair, if this will be a big baby, etc.  Many things to look forward to.  I feel like I am in a "holding pattern" since labor can literally happen at any moment.  Planning things in the short-term is very difficult since we have no idea when the little one will make their grand entrance. While I am not "desperate," I have been seeing things on the Internet regarding "natural" ways to induce labor.  I had to get pitocin the last time to induce labor because my water broke and I had no contractions.  I am hoping to go into labor naturally this time so I may just start exploring some of these "natural" ways to induce labor.

1. Walking
• Gravity and hip swaying may help the baby to naturally drop down into the pelvic area.  
• The pressure of the baby dropping can help labor progress by priming the cervix.
2. Sex
• Sperm contains prostaglandins which help to ripen the cervix by thinning and dilating it. 
• Oxytocin is released during sex which may help to trigger contractions.
3. Evening Primrose Oil (EPO)
• This should probably only be done under a doctor's supervision.  
• This is an herb which can help to thin and dilate the cervix.
• The capsules can be taken orally, the oil may be rubbed directly on the cervix or the capsules can be inserted vaginally.
4. Castor Oil
• Another thing that should be taken only under a doctor's supervision.
• It is a vegetable oil that is typically used as a laxative. 
• It causes intestinal spasms by stimulating the bowels.  Bowel stimulation can then irritate the uterus to cause it to contract.
• Works only if you're already showing signs of labor.  Taking it without the signs of labor may just give you a bad case of diarrhea.
5. Spicy Food
• Another intestinal irritant which may cause your uterus to contract.
• May cause or worsen heartburn.
6. Acupuncture
• Inserting needles into specific pressure points may stimulate uterine activity.
7. Acupressure
• Applying pressure to specific points on the body may stimulate uterine activity.
• Applying pressure to the webbing between the thumb and index finger
• Applying pressure to the inside of your leg about four finger-widths above the ankle bone.
8. Nipple Stimulation
• Massaging and twisting for a few hours a day may release oxytocin which can bring on contractions.
• Should be done under a practitioner's care.
• May cause long, painful contractions that can lower the heart rate of the baby.
9. Massage
• Massage can raise oxytocin levels which may bring on contractions. 
• Meditation can also help to relax you and raise oxytocin levels.  This is why the majority of labor happen late at night when relaxed in bed. 
10. Pineapples
• Contains the enzyme bromelain which may help soften the cervix.
• It can also aid in digestion by stimulating the bowels which can stimulate contractions.
11. Teas
• Should only be done under the care of a practitioner.
• Teas containing black and blue cohosh, raspberry leaf, cumin, or evening primrose oil may help to stimulate labor.
12. Visualization
• Visualizing your cervix opening may actually cause your cervix to open.

Finally, for some comic relief, someone posted this video on one of the message boards that I frequent.  It pretty much sums up the things that have been said to me and how I am feeling about those things.  If only I had a crystal ball then I can tell you when "the baby is coming..."

Has anyone tried any of the "natural" methods mentioned above?  If so, what was the result?
