overdue:(

I'm a week past my due date and still no sign of my baby girl coming...  I have tried almost everything from exercising, yoga ball, sex, pineapples, squats, and membranes stripped still nothing. I am very hesitant on castor oil because I makes you super sick and bad for your baby! I need help I just want my baby girl here!

I just had my daughter 5 days ago (Monday)... I was 41weeks, I went to be induced and was not dialated not even half a cm so they check her weight via ultrasound and she ended up being to big (10pounds 9oz) the dr said I had no chance of having her. Vaginally being that I was an ftm as well & that there was no need for an induction... I ended up having a c section,  but it just all depends hopefully theyll induce you with no problems... Good luck Girl :D Btw cesarean was not all that bad and I wasnt in labor for hours n hours or in pain...No regrets

If they start Pitocin, that's it. You'll have that baby soon after.  They don't send you home or anything.  the issue with inducing first time moms is a higher rate of c section but in general, an in hospital induction means you are having your baby one way or another when they do it.  good luck

Oh, you must be very close.  they won't let you go too much longer sweetie.  Don't try the castor oil.  It's going to happen on its own or they'll induce with Pitocin.  Hang in there.  Pretty soon you'll be holding your sweet baby!!
