Typically, by week 41, it’s common for your healthcare provider to request an ultrasound at the hospital to monitor the baby and amniotic fluid levels. This often comes with some pressure to consider labor induction. Understanding your options and feeling supported in this decision-making process is essential, allowing you to proceed confidently, whichever path you choose.
If you’re interested in trying non-pharmacological methods to encourage labor, I recommend reaching out around week 41. Together, we can create a personalized labor induction protocol that respects your body’s timing and preferences. During our consultation, we’ll explore both non-pharmacological and pharmacological labor induction options, walking through each procedure and the typical sequence of steps. This approach allows you to feel safe, informed, and prepared for whatever comes next.
The natural methods we may use include herbal teas, shakes, v-steaming, acupressure, and moxibustion.
This 120€ consultation is available either online or in person at Ventre.

Labor Induction
From the 41st week
done naturally with herbs
Pregnancy and due dates can be unpredictable, as everybody and the baby have their own natural timing. While getting pregnant is a journey in itself, giving birth exactly on your due date is even more uncertain. Some midwives understand that the body may need extra time and are comfortable waiting, while others may recommend earlier interventions.
