Labor?

I'm 39w5d and tried sex this morning to get things going.  Had bad cramping off and on all morning and now contracting. But they're not getting any stronger?!? Is this a start or just more lovely BH? What can I do to get it moving?

I don't think they could. I've been stuck at 1cm for 3 weeks now. And thinning. But that was Monday. I'm hoping something has changed since then

I had my membranes stripped this morning and have been cramping all day with 2 bad contractions so far, ask your doctor if they can do it for you. I also just finished a Yoga Inducing Labor dance I found on YouTube to bring my contractions closer together and so far it's working!

My due date is tomorrow too! And yes I've tried nipple stimulation a few times and nothing. Bouncing on the ball. Squats. Walking. Sex. I'm starting to believe the whole baby will come when they're ready thing. Apparently mine isn't ready lol. :(

I know the feeling I have tried everything and i mean EVERYTHING!!!! :( still nothing. The closest i get is with nipple stimulation but then cramps fizzle away. I'm 40w tomorrow.

Nothing happened. I was up and at it all day yesterday. Exhausted!!! And ready to have my babe.  Just cramping here and there. I know the end is near but it can't come soon enough. I was induced with my 1st and am really hoping I don't have to this time around.
