There are many folk remedies for easing or speeding along labor, especially when delivery is proving long or difficult. One of the most popular methods is to remove all fastenings and ties by using a form of sympathetic magic. If you can stand it, let your hair flow loosely about your shoulders. Remove any jewelry you might still be wearing. Other women in the room, if in a position to do so, can follow suit, offering further encouragement to the baby. Folks in the medieval period believed that an emerald tied about a woman's thigh helped speed labor. For those of you who don't have an emerald handy, an onyx will also work. Try using one as a focal point during your breathing to help you relax and move your labor forward.
