I'm 38+3 and soooo hopin the full moon works its magic on us mamas tonight! Lol I have had no sign of labor yet and it's almost 11pm here but hey, there's still a bit of time! Lol I go in to the dr tomorrow so maybe it'll work it's magic by getting me dilated and ready to go cuz I've made no progress so far and it's pretty annoying =[ and what's weird is last night and tonight I've had some cramping that's gone into my back and sometimes a little painful but this morning it was gone and just now returning now that I'm getting ready for bed...

Shoot, that should say last Friday I went in for the induction. This Friday I'm going in for an ultrasound and another non-stress test (had one on Monday) and I might get a membrane sweep if my doctor thinks it's time.

I don't really think you can call them stubborn, really, until after 42 weeks.

But as for me, I'm 39+5, due on Thursday. Last Thursday I went in to be induced due to high blood pressure (borderline preeclampsia) but I wasn't progressing after the prostaglandin gels. Since my HELLP panel came back fine and my blood pressure wasn't too high, they let me go home on modified bed rest. It's true, once you think the baby is coming everything seems to slow to a crawl!
