Anyone else here way over due and still pregnant?? And my ob still hasn't even discussed an induction with me :(

I've also been drinking cup after cup of raspberry leaf tea. It gives me stronger Braxton hicks contraction but hasn't helped with dilation..

Tried eating pineapple to for 5 days and gave up because all that did was give me heartburn.

Other Things I have tried: Sex, bouncing on yoga ball daily, evening hour walks, dancing, swimming in pool, washing floors on all fours, extra spicy food, nipple stimulation and now EPO inserted vaginally and taken orally. Haven't tried castor oil because I'm afraid it will make the baby have a bowel movement inside.

I have another NST scheduled today and I plan on asking my ob about an induction again. I don't think this little guy is coming out on his own anytime soon :P

40 weeks day 7....

Pineapple doesn't help. You have to eat a lot of it to work all at once. And you have to eat the core and a lot of it which is not the best part. I'm 40 weeks and 4 days pregnant I ate a whole pineapple and the core and nothing happen only thing that happen was it made my feet by swollen any more. I tried castor oil before and it didn't make me poop. That's cause I took 2 tablespoons and ate it with eggs. And it did give me contractions started off 4 mins apart and then 1-2 mins apart but they stopped the contractions cause I wasn't dilating and they didn't want to start pitocin cause I was 38 weeks and 6 days

But if you don't want to try that maybe try raspberry leaf tea, a lady on here said she drunk it the whole day like it was water and her water broke 12 midnight but she hasn't updated me and I haven't tried myself

I've heard pineapple helps ?? Just don't do the castor oil. That just makes you ??? lol. Foot massage and stimulating helps also I've read. Hang in there mama !

Any success with the acupuncture induction?

You could try induction acupuncture!

A lot of doctors don't do induction, until 42 weeks. Your due date is just an estimate. Hang in there, it won't be long!

Omg. Yeah talk about induction to your doctor. That's a long time to wait - id be so upset!

I already got a cervical sweep a week ago and it didn't do anything for me :( just sitting here waiting...

I'd talk to them for sure! I'll be 39 weeks tomorrow but my little guy is measuring just a little big and he's going to try scrapping me tomorrow. It's not guaranteed to start labor but it's our first step because my doctor is not big on induction due to it possibly leading to csection. I'd ask for a cervical sweep at least and good luck!

Call them and ask about it, I would of thought they would discuss it by now
