Why can't chocolate induce labor? It's just not fair!!!

it does release oxytocin, right?

I think that induces labor.

I have heard that an entire bag of Ghiradelli chocolates will induce.















Ok. I'm a total liar. But just tell yourself that and go with it.

Man this boy would have been born months ago if chocolate did anything.

yeah, i think it needs to be the real dark chocolate. (The kind that actually says "60% caco" or whatever.)

Which I will be eating later with a glass of wine.

All week, I've been eating the fudge and rocky road I made. So far it's done nothing to encourage labor. It's supposed to be in the house for visitors and the midwives but I think I'll just eat it all by myself.

I just sent Dh out for a frozen cherry and m&ms and I was just thinking that I didnt specify the BIG bag when I opened this thread - I figure he should know by now. I figure as long as this kiddo is staying put I might as well throw back some chocolate.
