There are probably lots of threads on this if someone wants to direct me to them.

My sister is a week over her due date with her first child. She is booked into a birthing centre in Northern NSW for a water birth with Doula attending. Her GP will also be in attendance. She is a little concerned as the centre has a policy of not allowing her to go more than 2 weeks over her due date, and if she is chemically induced the birthing centre wont allow her to birth there and she will have to go to the local hospital. A bit of a catch22...

I chatted with her and while she realises anything can happen in the next week, I wanted to give her some suggestions for natural encouragement of labour knowing full well that baby will come when baby wants to come (and that is really how she wants it).

She and her partner are into natural therapies (he is a naturopath) and want an intervention free birth if possible.

Any suggestions?
