I agree on waiting until you've hit 38 weeks. I walked, bounced on a yoga ball all day long, did lots of squats and lunges, took primrose oil capsules, and drank raspberry tea. I also had sex with my husband just about every night. I wasn't dilated at all but my water broke so I was admitted and had my baby at 39 + 1. I started all of that at 38 weeks pregnant. Dunno if any of it necessarily helped but it kept me busy and the raspberry leaf tea and primrose oil helps to keep you from tearing. I had no tears after delivery except one that was so minor it didn't need any stitches or special care. 😁 I also ate fresh pineapple and lots of spicy foods but those aren't scientifically proven to do anything, haha.

I'm all for 38 weeks I've NEVER seen a 38weeker in the Nicu I've seen 37weekers in there for like super super minor things but if I can save a mom of even having 1night there I will I've had so many people bash me saying oh I've had a 37weeker they where fine while I'm like I said a handful not a lot but yeah thas great that you're already almost 38weeks I only made kr to 24weeks

Okay lol I'll wait ! I turn 38 weeks Friday . I'll probably wait till the first part of next week or so . Just hope she comes on time . @preemiemommy22616

Yeah, wait til your 38weeks. Sometimes even tho ultrasounds say all is good sometimes they could be a lil behind not trying to be rude I'm just trying to say 37weeks is the 1st week considered full-term but most prefer you to be 38weeks, I've seen a hand full of 37weeekers in the Nicu for minor reasons.
