I felt  that  way with my first. I was so miserable and uncomfortable I am.4ft10 ans he  was  almost 21 in and  weighed 8.6lbs. Pretty good size for a very petit person. Of course my doctor felt bad for me bc I was so miserable couldn't walk w/o crying bc I felt like gec was going to split me in two so she induced me at 39+6. And you know what biggest regret of my life. My buddy want ready he wasn't ready. I only dilated 8cm his heartrate started so jumping around so guess what I go to get prepped for a csection. If I'd waited a few more days Im sure I would've went into labor. Being induced was miserable for me worst experience of my life. Now I have to try a vbac. If I can I really suggest just waiting your not even at your edd yet and full term is 38-42 weeks. Nit saying I'd wanna go 42 lol but hang in there you can do it! :-) give your baby body some time. Take warm relaxing baths walk as much as is comfortable and just try to get as much sleep as you can it'll happen soon ;-)

My friends made them selves go into labor by eating pineapples, hot stuff, rubbing the nerve in their ankles in a circular motion.. Sitting on an exercise ball & bouncing on it.. Doing jumping jacks.. & having sex!(:

Being induced can make the babys heart rate go up and down..and they may have to do an emergency c section. Its best to just wait it out

Don't feel that way. EDD is just a guesstimate. I'm due Saturday with number 2 & I never thought I'd be past due. I've tried everything to no avail. But I've rested my mind on being induced. I've accepted it although I wanted baby to come on her own but I accepted induction because I literally can't wait any longer for many reasons. Good luck

I was induced at 40+6 with my first and 41+4 with my second, so this time around, I'm not going to bother trying to get it out early, or even on time lol.
