I have tried laxative suppositories with a butt plug and I'm not sure that they made much difference. I had however emptied my bowels before putting the butt plug in so that probably helped.
The key to me seems to give the butt plug plenty of pumps. If you do that then you get a real feeling of pressure and will find yourself getting involuntary surges to bear down. 30 pumps seems to be the point at which that starts but I have gone to 40 and it's very very hard to stop yourself wanting to push at that point - you will be gasping and having to pant and praying for a miracle to relieve the pressure! Combine that with a decent TENS/EMS machine with timed contractions up to 90 secs long and you can have a really intense birth experience.
I use a belly made of a punch balloon filled with orbees and have a selection of maternity outfits and a bump band to try to hold it all in place.
It's so enjoyable to experience labour if you can get the house to yourself for a while. I like to start off with some gentle contractions and walk around quite a bit before gradually making the contractions stronger and longer. Then I put the butt plug in which gives me a sensation of the baby entering my birth canal and filling my back passage. I also like the butt plug to be pumped up enough to be hard to push out - birth isn't easy!!
Enjoy!
