Overdue!!!

Im 4days overdue and apart from a few braxton hicks at night along with backache i dont think bubbas coming yet. Getting so fed up! I walked for hours the other day and i got home and all that happened was i was sooooo tired (but couldnt sleep) with a bad backache like i was stood literally all day. :( any ideas? I got a dweep monday but didnt really wanna have to get on. I dont believe in induction either but if i really have to - so be it x

Girl I'm with you!! I'm not over due lol..but I've been having tons of braxton hicks...a few contractions here or there...and I'll walk for hours!! And just like you can't sleep :/....lol its so annoying because these little people are stubborn!!! I'm getting a membrane sweep Monday also...I'll be 39weeks Tuesday but if the sweep doesn't work I'll be going over my due date :/....(16th)......I've been stuck at 1cm dilated for 2 weeks and I'm 75% effaced

Spicy mexican food...that put me into labor with both my kids and my first was overdue.  I ate more spicy than i usually did and went into labor within a day with both.  Good luck.

Other than walking Im not sure what else you can do. I dont know what a sweep is, but dont be surprised if there will be an induction. Good luck hun!
