Don't push it too much. Babies are ready when they're ready. I know I know, it ***** to hear it. But due dates can be wrong. Let baby come when he's ready. Even big babies can be born vaginally, we stretch alot. If you want to speed up labor that's started, look up acupressure points for labor. There is one on you ankle and your wrist. I used it and it worked wonderfully. Of course I also ended up bruising those spots from pushing on them so much. Lol.
