I used to recommend it a great deal, but last week I had yet another client whose waters broke soon after acupuncture but with no labour (last one ended up with a c/s as I think another did too). So there was the induction pressure and also some have had positional issues as often happens when waters break early / first. So I am a little more hesitant to recommend it, it may be co-incidence, but there have been a few now.

Our bodies are designed to labour eventually. It may not be as soon as we hope or like, but trust your body will labour and your baby will know the journey. Perhaps go the massage which is great at relaxing you and know plenty of women who have gone into good labour from that alone.
