Please please please!

So my due date is tomorrow and I had a drs apt today & For the first time my cervix is finally open!! Only to one cm though :( and she says I am still pretty thick. I have no labor signs in sight but I have been in an extreme amount of pain for days on end now in my lower back, mostly to the right side. So we discussed me being induced but since my cervix is so thick she doesn't want to just give me pitocin in fears of a c section happening if I don't thin and dialate quick enough. SOOOO she is having me come back Monday to check again for a "more favorable cervix". What can I do to help my cervix thin and dialate? Pleaseee, anything! I can't handle this pain much longer! Thanks in advance

Same thing happened to me and mine never got any better so tomorrow they're inserting a pill to thin out my cervix and I'm getting pitocin Sunday morning! Have lots of sex though it helps thin your cervix!

My boyfriend works 6 hours away so sex is out of the question... Ive been taking evening primrose but maybe I should start trying it vaginally? I've been tryint to walk but I am in so much pain I was in tears today just from going to my drs apt. But I guess I'll have to try and push through and go on a walk tomorrow.. Thanks
