Late delivery

Just wondering how many of you ladies gave birth after your due date. I'm due today but it doesn't feel like she's going to come anytime soon. What did you do to help speed up labour?

I over carried 1 week with my daughter and 2 weeks with my son. Went into labor right before induction both times. Tried everything to get them out. There's nothing that worked. They come when theyre ready.

According to my first sonogram I was due the 11th, but based off of my anatomy one I'm due the 17th. Either way there's no sign of baby yet. Fingers crossed she comes soon because she's already over 8lbs lol

My daughter was two days past her due date, I know you're anxious to meet that precious baby but take this time to relax because there won't be any time for that after baby arrives! Good luck :)

My son was born 6 days late, but that was going off of the due date they changed at my anatomy ultrasound. I had a very early ultrasound done at about 6 weeks that was more accurate. He came a day early according to original due date. I guess the earlier it is the more accurate? At least that's what I have heard. Congrats she'll be here before you know it!
