First and foremost CONGRATS!
Me and my wife are expecting our first, she is also overdue - PLUS 6 days and counting!!
All that you said is what I have heard - most effective is nookie according to the midwife we spoke to today - something to do with a hormone which
triggers it all off - i wont go into the gritty detail!
Other things to try is
Evening primrose oil tablets (we are getting some tomorrow)
Lavander oil (pure essential oil) - but go steady (essential oils get absorded straight into the blood stream - therefore reaches the baby too!) my
wife is a trained aromatheripist and even she was hesitant before jumping into a hot bath with a few drops in.
Hot curry
good luck to both of us

Again as others have said "SEX". The sperm stimulates the cirvix, which could help induce labour.
The others you have mentioned are also what me and my wife heard helps.
Oh and I sure another one I heard is coconut or coconut milk. Maybe wrong on that one though. lol.
CONGRATS.

Just been through the process about 4 weeks ago!
nothing really seems to work, but go with the sex as at least it's more fun than raspberry leaf tea!

Thanks chaps and cappets Keep em comming
birthing ball Yup tried that at least an hour a day.
Tried a really hot chinese tonight.
Evening primrose oil tablets Mmmm will send her out to get some tomorow.
Trampoline MMM not sure she will be up for that one.
She has had a couple of membraine sweeps ( not pleasant ) but shes not really far enough on for it to assist.
Off for a walk ( read waddle ) arroud the village.
Will be geting induced on Thur but would prefer thing to get started of naturally.
Oh the working on the car Just suggested that and Trust me I cant quote the response or I might get reported to Fozzie .
Keep em comming.

Our local midwife swore by nipple stimulation (hers not yours). Thought she would have had it by now mate as you were ready to go at Newark and that
seems like forever ago. Our first was an induced and it was the longest day of my life (chernoble blew up as well). I hadn't had anything to eat
all day and was eating digestives and tea as she was pushing it out at 7pm ish (started at 8am). Good luck with the stimulation and all the best for
the future.
If it looks wrong it probably is wrong.

Our first child is now 4 months and one week old. She was induced two weeks and two days overdue and my wife had to be put on a drip of the fluid to
get things moving.
We tried sex, curry, pinapple, walks stimulating nipples etc. and one to add to the list is garlic - something to do with it being strong so
stimulating the baby.
We were so sure that she wasn't ready to come out that we went for a long drive from Chorley to MK and back to pick up a fuel tank at 10 days
overdue!
Has anyone else whose baby was well overdue found that their's is very strong willed. Ours is already a right little madam with such a stong
character, we wouldn't change her for the world!

does the wife have a date for beimg induced. same thing happened with my wife with my son who was the same amount overdue. she woke me up a 1am on the
day she was meant to go in and it was panic stations and all hands to the pumpi think it was the fear of being induced that did the trick!!! oh and
by the way we tried all the tricks sex etc
and congratulations all the best
oh and we are due another baby on january 1st 2008

My eldest was 2 weeks late and was born on my first saturday night off for 6 months. We tried all off the above and nothing worked. He is 17 now and
is still late for everything
WARNING!!! BIRTH IS NOT A SPECTATOR SPORT!!!!
Good Luck to you both and the bump.
Cheers
