Nothing helps. I was already 50% effaced and 1 cm dilated and I walked 2 hours a day, ate spicy food for lunch and dinner, and had s_x twice a day for a week. Went back to the dr and hadnt made any progress. The next week I laid on the couch in my pj's for 3 days straight and did nothing. Went back to the dr and am fully effaced and 3 cm dilated. Nothing happens until your body is ready, no matter what they say!

i tend to agree although i think a sweep may do something but again baby has to be ready and it will just give it a gentle nudge in the right direction, i have had 2 sweeps, the first did nothing but i had a show and baby started to engage after the second which isn't too late as this is my fourth, i am due on monday and getting another sweep then so fingers crossed this will do the the trick, good luck when is your dd, and any suggestions on how to keep myself occupied, burst into tears at midwife appt yesterday as frustrated and just wanna hold my baby

4x4ing down a bumpy trail worked for me

I'm almost 39 weeks too but totally believe, from my own experience and others, that NOTHING will work unless you body is ready to go into labour. Good luck in trying though!

i wouldnt try the Castor oil, i used it 4oz to be exact and nothing! and i was already 2cm and 100% eff! Walking helped me a lot, i walked an hour each night on the treadmill and my baby was still 3 days overdue
