Stubburn baby any suggestions?

Wow I have 17 more weeks to go and I been trying to get things to progress, my son dont want to come out he just wants to mess with mommy. The only thing I havent tried yet is sex and the oils.. I mean does those 2 really work? Im so ready to get him out to meet the world, not being selffish or anything but im sooo uncomfortable about now. I just dont know what else to do..

There really isn't much to do.  There are so many different ideas when it comes to starting labor, but in all honesty, if that baby isn't ready then he isn't going to come until he is.  I know your uncomfortable and 17 days probably seems like an eternity, but at 37 weeks, your just at the point now where if a child is born there is likely no NICU stay.  So it is actually good that he is hanging in there right now, growing nice and strong.  Just hang in there...it won't be long now.

To be honest if you have 17 more week to go.. it wouldn't be healthy for him to come meet the world now!
