40w 4days No signs of labor :-(

i am beyond tired! I just want him out already! I need my water to break and have things start on their own. I don't want to be induced which is scheduled five days from now if nothing happens naturally. I've tried everything and he isn't budging. He's super duper active at night been keeping me up... Which I can surely expect once he is here but as long as he is still inside of me I'd like to get a good nights (even a few hours) sleep.

Look up labour inducing reflexology. Get the OH to try the pressure points for you.  Good luck

Absolutely no signs of labor. No mucous plug no ghost contractions sometimes I can't tell a BH from his movements cause he's so big and everywhere is tight... And no leakage or water breaking. Ugh
