Poor thing , I'm in the same boat I don't want to go past my due date because I don't want the baby to get too big like my first which ended up in a c-section. If I go past my due date I'm going to ask to be induced !. But in the meantime I'm trying to help my body dialate. My doctor told me the male sperm helps you dialate & she's also pushing me to do squats!

I totally understand how you feel. I'm pregnant with my third child, but I definitely remember my frustration with my first and second baby. I over carried one week with my first and two weeks with my second! I tried EVERYTHING! Sex actually put me into labor with the second baby so I would recommend lots of that. Good luck I know how difficult it can be those last weeks.. and I don't know if you're a spiritual person or not but I prayed a lot and I went into labor without induction both times. I thank God for that.

Are you choosing to be induced to get your child here quicker if you go past your due date?
