Same thing that got us here will help get us through
I'm right there with you. I'll be 40 weeks on the 19th. I went to my Dr appointment on Thursday and I was 4cm opened to on Friday I went walking and had sex and I got contractions that night, so I figured baby was coming ,nope!!!contractions stopped. I started my day today with a walk and ended it with a warm bath but still no baby. Ugh!!! I feel you.
What i did was dancing. I dance zumba on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday i started feeling something. So i was not able to dance on Wednesday and Thursday morning i started having period pain. Around 12 noon i lose my plug and by 1pm i told my husband that we need to go to hospital coz d period pain is getting worse. By 2 15pm i had my son on my due date. 31st/12/15. So i will say dance
Drink red leaf tea- or hook the breast pump up to your boobs for 10 minutes intervals- that will stimulate contractions. Also evening primrose oil-poke a hole in the top and out 2-4 in your vaginal canal nightly it will soften your cervix. Have your OB strip your membranes it will help stimulate labor!
Omg I'm in the same situation, 39 wks will be 40 on Wednesday the 18th and NOTHING!! I've done the walking when it's warm enough outside, cleaning, dancing & sex. I'm so over this pregnancy.
I took primrose oil, after a fell in the tub the hospital checked to see if i was dilated at all.. I wasnt. The next day i lost my plug, and the day after that i had my daughter. I was 39w 5d
Walking being more active rather than relaxed ....depends on the person even hot food can work
