Does hot water help you dilate?

Natarajan confirmed that "the release of oxytocin causes uterine contractions, softening and dilating the cervix." Parents confirmed that a dilated cervix gets you ready to begin active labor and deliver your baby. So, there's solid evidence that the warm shower on your breasts method can help induce labor.
