Does nipple stimulation help ripen cervix and help dilation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nipple stimulation ?: Nipple stimulation can cause uterine contractions, but in general will not stimulate the start of true labor. Rhythmic and strong contractions in early labor are necessary to produce significant cervical dilation.
