A member asked:
Does nipple stimulation or sex help induce labor? (im 39weeks 5days, babys head is engaged)
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Oh, yes!: Nipple stimulation can cause an increase in uterine contractions as well as orgasm. By the way, it won't harm the baby at all and may provide an 'express trip down the elevator chute'.
