Sex
Hi Ladies!
I'm getting a bit sick of being pregnant now and I'm desperate the start labour off. I know that sex is supposed to bring it on, but just wanted to know whether it's the actual sex, or the effect that semen has on making your uterus contract? Sorry if that sounds silly, just never knew why sex helped. Love Rachel XXX

My friend is due any day now, and asked her midwife this same question today... she was told its all about the penetration, and the force loosening the plug.. but that semen helps too to soften cervix... so from the sounds of it.. its both things.. so the whole act can have impact but only if your body is literally ready and needs a bit of a push lol.
I know with my first child, the morning after sex I had a show, and went into labour that day.. 10 days early, so think it can happen.
If anyone still feels up to it and is sick of trying everything else, its worth a go..ha ha
