labor inducing naturally?

Hey ladies, I am 38 and 3 days now. Second baby. I've been 2cm dilated for about 4 weeks now. What can I do to get this show on the road? Fyi, sex has not worked considering hubby and I never stopped.... tried dancing also. No luck! With my 1st I was induced. Please help!

39+2 days and barely 1cm dilated. Raspberry leaf tea and bouncing on my yoga ball are actually getting my contractions going. It might just be that your body isn't ready or baby isn't ready.
