so i was ready to be induced this weekend, but the hospital is full. my stomach is measuring at 45 weeks and the growth scan is 10.5lbs. BUT since theres technically nothing 'medically' wrong, and im 39 weeks -- theyre pushing me off till next weekend because of the holiday and forcing me to a c section due to a big baby.

SO IM GOING TO DO ANYTHING I CAN.
what has worked for you ladies!?
i moved into my new place this weekend -- carrying things back and forth, so ive been VERY active all week.
aaaaaaand ive masturbated (tmi) and had sex all week. im running out of options and time ):

    Im surprised they didnt induce u measuring that big. at 39 wks my baby was measuring at 9.1 lbs. Dr said i could do it then because of her size. she came out 9.7 lbs. i hope your baby isnt really 10 lbs!

    Walk? Are you dilated or effaced any? So they aren't even giving you the chance to deliver vaginally?

    That's messed up. They don't want their holiday ruined by work, they shouldn't have been doctors. Get that sweet little angel out of you!
    I have no helpful tips bc I'm in the same boat as far as wanting to start labor. My due date was yesterday. They wanted to push me til the 25th but I told my doctor no, the sooner the better. So I've been moved to the 21st.
    I'd say be demanding and bitchy with your doctor at this point. Its your vagina and health. I've found it works well with these people. My doctor wanted to wait but it was bc she wasn't going to be on call on Monday, meaning she wasn't going to get paid, someone else will. Not my problem. Not yours. Demand you get induced.

    i tried EVERYTHING and i started 6 hours before due to be induced lol i walked 2-3 miles a day for 3 weeks, bounced on my ball atleast 2 hours a day, had sex, pineapple, nipple stimulation, ran up and downstairs, had clary sage baths, rubbed it over bump, accupressure points, more sex, hot curry and hot food, had a sweep, walking one foot on curb one foot of, prob loads more other things that i can't think of
