Babies will come when they’re ready. No two ways about it.
But, Reflexology can help to balance the body, calm the mind and prepare the body for labour.
If a baby is overdue, it’ll also likely start contractions or Braxton Hicks. But as ever, there is no guarantee.
I have had two lovely ladies see me recently for induction sessions which I will only ever undertake when the pregnancy is at term. Both were overdue (treatments tend to work better when overdue).
The first began having contractions the moment I hit the ‘sweet spot’ as I call it and they continued throughout the day but alas, they wore off by the next day. Baby was finally born by elective C-section 4 days later.
The second lady experience tightenings half way into her treatment and felt a lot of activity going on in her uterus. Her hind waters went about 10 minutes from the end of the session and her lovely baby was born a day later via a very speedy, text book delivery.
