I am going to be pregnant FOREVER, I know it!

I'm so stressed out. I don't have the luxury of induction. Its not something my hospital does for women who have had c sections before. This would be my 2nd VBAC if I can get there! But I am 39 weeks measuring 43 and the baby is guessed to be 8-9lbs already. Yes, I know... not 100% but my last 2 were 8.13 and 9.5 so it stands to reason. If he gets too big they're going to "reccomend c section" and I would be dumb to ignore their advice...
Idk if Im done having kids yet and 1 more c section and thats it for me... no more natural birth! I have 2 kids I cannot be out of commision as long as I was with my c section before. Husband has to work. There is literally nobody to assist me daily. Everyone works. I really want that vbac!
I have tried it all! Nipple stimulation, sex,  walking, raspberry leaf tea,spicy food! Nothing works!
Is there some magical thing I havent tried yet?!

I have no idea how dilated/effaced I am. Last I knew sunday I was "a loose 1 maybe 2cm" and I was "soft" how soft?! No clue.
I am just really stressing.... Tryyyyying to relax but phhhttt ok...right lol
I am all over the place!
Stories,words of encouragment.... anything helps!

I just read that alot of midwives use it to get contractions going and keeo them regular. Apparently native americans use to use it to bring on labor in expecting mothers and is apparently a sure fire thing. But blue cohosh has been known to have bad side effects. Hense why I just suggested black because it is safe when taken in recommendes doses :)

I might do that. Most of the malls here are strip malls and all one level. Actually, all 3 are lol. I have stairs but Im afraid of annoying my neighbors. They actually complain that my DOG walks up them too loud!

have you tried walking UP stairs? Like going to a mall or some place with stairs and just walking up. When I was in early labor with my second at 32-33 weeks, he said NO stairs. Maybe that will help you?
