Married At First Sight couple Zoe Hendrix and her partner Alex Garner are trying literally every trick in the book to hurry their bub along.

The couple, who fell in love on season one of the dating show, have been keeping fans up to date with their antics on social media, and let’s just say some of their techniques are rather entertaining.

Admitting that she’s already in early labour, which can take days or weeks to move along, Zoe has taken matters into her own hands.

“WAITING GAME is getting hard I’ve tried acupuncture, castor oil (I don’t recommend that) jumping on the fit ball, long walks, spicy food, eating dates but so far no success! this baby is not budging!” Zoe shared on Instagram next to a bump selfie.

Fans were quick to dish up their own tips to the soon-to-be mama.

“Pizza. It always works for me,” one user suggested.

“Evening Primrose oil! Inserted and taken orally! Helped me!” Chimed another. “Sex..worked for me. Goodluck,” another added.

Supportive partner Alex also shared a video of the 26-year-old bouncing on an exercise ball in an effort to trigger their bub.

Meanwhile, some fans have speculated she may already be in labour as the pair have both gone unusually quiet on social media.

In May, the elated couple revealed to Woman’s Day they were expecting.

“We’re absolutely over the moon,” Zoe said at the time.

It’s been a challenging struggle for the expectant parents. Zoe suffered a heartbreaking miscarriage last year, then when she fell pregnant this time, she was diagnosed with hyperemesis gravidarum – the same severe morning sickness the Duchess of Cambridge experienced with her two pregnancies.
