im finally coping 40+4

So I went to tge hospital and was sent home next to me was another pregnant women who was told shes 4cm & staying to have a baby . I couldnt help but start crying it made me so down and depressed. My husband try to ask me whats wrong and I ignored him (in my hospital oddly enough my husband cant be in the room when im being checked for how dilated so he doesnt know what the doctor told me) the whole way home and after I was distant didnt even want to sleep next to him . I cried myself to sleep and all! Well this morning I woke up refreshed . Im okay with waiting and even if I get induced at least I know shes coming . Is anyone at the same point ?

Try being on ypur hands a knees as much as possible.  Talk to your doctor about stripping ypur membrains. Where I am the hospital staff will not let you go so long before its time to evict the baby. Good luck hun.

Try bouncing on a excercise ball it'll help bring baby down a bit and ton of walking..

I'm past due hun. Saw the doctor yesterday and his comment of "it may be s while longer cause baby is nowhere near your pelvis" really made me sad. I'm so uncomfortable and I just wanna meet my baby.
I know he will come when he's good and ready but after waiting 10months I'm losing patience.

Poor thing. Hang in there. When ur ready try to open up 2 ur hubby. You shouldn't have to carry that by urself. Wish you well!

Don't be discouraged. ... many woman go past their due date. Your little one isn't quite ready yet. Has the doctor considered inducing you? It's usually an option once you've past 40w.
