Im 39 weeks pregnant and trying to start up my contractions up faster can organo or sage do it or can i drink any kind of teas?

Starting labor: 1 tablespoon of cumin with a chunk of potato as a tea has been recommended for inducing labor. Cotton root tea is also recommended. Oregano, sage and basil are not very useful, since their effects are so mild. Red raspberry leaf tea helps strengthen contractions.
