"The" Salad

According to the internet and some of my post-pregnancy neighbor moms, there is a restaurant right down the street from my apartment that has a labor inducing salad. It has become one of those Los Angeles urban legends. But many swear that they ate this and within 24 hours were having major labor contractions. Do I believe that balsamic vinegar and olive oil is going to push my pregnancy into high gear? No, not really. But, if something doesn't happen by Wednesday, my doctor is pumping me with labor inducing drugs. As much as I hate salad, I don't like the idea of pitocin even more. Plus, I get a nice date with my husband out of our trip.

We'll have an update soon one way or the other.

  1. Girl things are always putting pple in labor from something called "pepper tea" ( which I did drink !LOL) to certain places you shouldn't get massaged because it actually does cause contractions .. . I know for a fact that, that one works!! But actually some mixtures of certain acids and foods will induce labor so. . .personally Ive never had to go the full 10 months of pregnancy cause my children are impatient, but I do feel your pain . . . I would try the salad!! Love you boo!!
