41 weeks with my third
Officially 41 weeks today! Baby is ROA and 50% effaced, but I’ve lost pink tinged mucus plug for days since getting checked. No contractions at all. I know the Lord has me in His hands.
I can’t do induction - I won’t progress well in a hospital setting and the epidural caused my spinal fluid to leak with my first so I wont do that again. An induction for me would lead to a c section - I’m sure of it. My provider will drop me past 42 weeks.
My last stayed in till 41+6 after a membrane sweep but I’d been in prodromal labor for weeks by then.
Is it true no exercise can cause labor to start? What about those YouTube labor inducing exercise videos?
Castor oil?
That cohosh stuff?
Walking?
Do I just wait patiently for labor to start even past 42 weeks?
