I’m so over this

Same boat, 40 weeks today with no signs (besides some lower back pain?) of her coming. I have a scheduled induction 10/12 but I wanted her to be here this weekend 😬 as long as they are safe and healthy, we’ve gotta wait it out!

me too man 😭 I am 40+5, I'm already at least a couple centimeters dilated last we checked, baby dropped ages ago, and I have constant cramps but with no pattern whatsoever! People keep asking me everyday (multiple times a day for some of them) "baby?" and it's driving me crazy

I think once you reached 40 it’s full term and you might be able to be induced, depends on your doctor or how filled the hospital is

First, set a boundary with people asking. Let them know you will tell them when baby is here and will not be responding at all if they ask before that, then block them if you have to. Peace of mind will serve you so much more than they will.

In fact, increasing oxytocin is your best bet for getting labor started sooner. Orgasms/sex, cuddling and kissing, petting your dog or cat, watching funny movies, basically anything that makes you feel love and joy. So…not people “checking in” on you….🙃😂🤷🏻‍♀️

there's hope!! haha i commented on this yesterday but now i'm in active labor! It's alright just hold on!
