This may sound weird but nipple stimulation sometimes kicks things into gear so if you have a pump use it and it may kick start labor for you.

Don't drink castor oil. It does more harm than good. I Would go to the hospital anyways since you haven't been seen in a very long time.

Go in and lie if you have to to get the answers you need. Say you think your water broke but aren't sure.

I'd go in mama.. that's a long time not seeing a Dr. I'd tell them your situation when you go in.

You could try Castor oil and walking.

Thank you,just worried and not sure what to do,called old ob they wont answer me n hospital i feel jus blew me off. I do have bad pressure for weeks now,diarrea,nasea,backache for a week,hurts to stand,walk ect. Contractions range from 10-20 min apart but theyll b like tht for hrs then disappear. The only time baby seems to move is when i have contractions n she pushes her body out

If I was in your position I would go to the hospital and say your having contractions and say your over due and would appreciate some answers as far as how your dialated/effaced, and how the baby looks.  Id ask for an ultrasound to see how the baby looks and see if the cord is good like not wrapped and what not. Id explain the situation. I'm sure they would understand. Good luck sweeie. <3
