39 weeks and no progress

I'm 39 weeks and I have not made any progress in getting closer to labor. Midwife told me if I go over my due date he will most likely be a 9-10 pound baby. Any ideas on how to get things started?

I went to my due date and due day+3 with my first two, with no prior signs of progress...just eventually started contracting and then everything went like clockwork. It was hard hearing "no progress" at 39w (and 40w)  though, maddening!

I had my first on her due date and didn't have any signs of labor until that day. You still have time! Good luck!
