nope.. first pregnancy..; but i spoke with an accupuncturist who told me that regardless of the pressure points unless your little one is ready.. it wont make you go into labor.. he showed me the spot on the ankle where not to play with though.. just in case... i guess it could work though for some who are ready to go into labor anyway.. Good Luck

I will be trying it if my labour does not start on it's own. I do know that accupuncture is very successful for inducing labour (they use the same points on the body to induce labour). My doula said her last 5 clients who were scheduled for medical induction used accupuncture and had great success.

Accupressure is actually different than accupuncture. It's where you press on pressure points on your body....not where you use the needles.
