You can ask to see if the dr will give you sweep. Also called scrape membranes. But my dr wouldn't do that till 39wks.  And I'm now 39wks and 5days. I'm getting mine done on Monday if I haven't went into labor by then.

I'm due the 17th and 2cm and 60-70% effaced I asked my doctor what I could do and she said there's really nothing guaranteed to work. Baby is gonna come whenever they want :( I think at this point we'd all like to speed things up! Lol

Following! I'm due the 18th as well. I'm 90% effaced, not dilated at all. Only advice I was given was to have a lot of sex../: no appetite and extremely nauseous.
