I am 33 weeks pregnant and have SEVERE fibromyalgia (a chronic pain disorder) and am going through considerable pain constantly. Is it ethical, possible, and safe to cast a spell to induce labor??? And if not does anyone know any really good healing spells?

Talk to you prenatal care provider. Any baby under that magic 38 weeks is at risk for a myrad of health problems. Find out if there is someway to relieve your pain without having a premature birth. There are some "safe" pain drugs out there for pregnant women but if you don't ask you won't get. And be careful what you wish for, you just may get it and more than you ever really wanted.

I have Fibro also but it wasn't as bad as it is now during my pregnancies. Rather than asking that you go into labor early, it would be better to work a healing spell and ask for relief of pain and a healthy child. One of the goddesses of healing is Hygeia.

And, as Drisel said, talk to your medical professional on the mundane level about what can safely be done for you and the baby. You may also need to put your foot down to your family and demand help. None of us are very comfortable during the third trimester and your health problems are compounding that. Those of us who live with this condition know that it's up to us to take care of ourselves and this sometimes involves being very clear about our needs to our loved ones, even to the point of refusing to do what we can not do.

Brightest blessings and healing to you.
