I loved being pregnant. My husband and I had waited a while before trying to have children. We then found that it took a little while to get pregnant. When we found out that we were finally pregnant, we were thrilled!

The first trimester was pretty terrible. I was sick almost every day. The second trimester was quite good and then for most of the third trimester, I felt great! That was until I went past my estimated due date. I was so miserable and so ready to induce labor. I was doing a natural childbirth so I wanted to induce labor naturally.

I heard from a friend who was also naturally minded that I should try acupressure to induce labor. She’s had great results with her pregnancies. I gave it a shot. I had my husband work on a few points and within 24 hours, I was in labor. My water broke and within 6 hours, I had my daughter without any drugs.
