How to postpone labor...

I know this is the opposite of what we all want, but I just found out my company benefits are changing as of 12/1 and I am officially due on 12/2. If I hold out until 12/1, I get an extra month of paid time off! I am really worried I will be early. Any suggestions on how to hold out??? Any suggestions would be great, thanks!

Put ginger and a little bit of Apple cider vinegar in Camomile tea but make sure not too much ginger or vinegar cuz it would taste nasty I am 37 +4 and I haven't lost my plug or started contractions and my family genetically has had premature babies for the longest time and when I had my ultrasound the other day the ultrasound tech said the baby weights approx 8 pounds

Do as least as possible, I'm doing the same thing. I was having heavy contractions for a while, but I put myself on a kind of bed rest only leaving the house if I have to, it's working so far.
