Have you lost any of your mucus plug recentlu
I can completely understand your desire to get to the end of this long road of pregnancy. The last bit is definitely very hard. You're 37 weeks. If this is your first pregnancy, you'll probably go to 40 or so as this is the most common outcome. Remember, due dates are an educated guess at best. Babies tend to come when they want. And first pregnancies, for whatever reason . . . take a bit longer to go into labor. My body just didn't want to give it up and I was 10 days past my 40 week due date. I WAS induced at that point . . . lordy, I'd have done anything at that point. I could hardly walk!
Things that are known to help --- sex, walking a lot, bouncing on an exercise ball. I wouldn't try the eating things or ingesting of things myself as those have mixed reviews. And I found that as time went on, when my doctor checked me, that stimulation of my cervix helped me progress a bit. Even stripping of the membrains is an option to make it happen.
But overall, it really does kind of happen when it is supposed to rather than being easily manipulated. Here is my heartfelt advice . . . this is your last bit of time of a calm life. LOL Babies are so awesome but do change things. So, go out to lunch with friends, have a date with your partner, read a good book, watch movies . . . because soon your hands will be full (more full than they are now if you have other kiddos).
But I do feel your pain and understand why you want this done NOW. good luck sweetie
