No tmuch: There are whole bunch of urban legends out there, but none really work. Talk to your obgyn about an induction of labor. Good luck!

Sex, bouncing.: Vaginal intercourse at term can trigger labor from cervical stimulation and prostaglandin in ejaculate. Bouncing on large midwife balls is also supposed to help you go into labor, although not scientifically proven.
