40weeks and 3 days :(

posted 9th Feb
So I've tried everyone's advice walked stairs walking period eating spicy foods the oil everything possible and nothing two days ago we had 3 minute apart contractions went in.and they said I wasn't progressing enough I came home slept and the contractions were gone. I've had none since   I see my doctor Monday which will make me about 4 or 5 days over due what are the chances he would talk about induction? I'm 50% thinned and about 2cmdilated?

Maybe baby just isn't ready to come out yet? I know it feels like the end of the world when you go over due and each day after 40 weeks is miserable. But just remember that the EDD can be off by up to two weeks either way.
Maybe baby just isn't done cooking.
Just try to relax (as much is possible) and remember that no matter what you are going to be meeting your baby with in a few days to a week tops!
It's almost over mamma. You can do this. Don't force baby out.

When I went into labor at 41 weeks they told me to be prepared for a cecarian because LO was measuring around 10lbs.
LO came out a healthy 7lbs 14oz.

@mommy3/17 did you doctor do that or did you have to ask how dilated and thinned are you?

I know you didn't ask me  
Sometimes they will ask you if you want it. But with you being over 40 weeks you could ask them to do it.
I went into labor about 48 hours after I got my membranes stripped.

I have bad hips, too (had to wear a brace when I was little), and I had a 9lb 8oz baby with absolutely no issues. You'll be fine, mama.

Besides, they're weight gain stops dramatically past 38 weeks, so chances are he's as big as he's going to get. He's definitely not going to gain a ton of weight over the next few days. You're body has already made progress if you're thinned an dilated. Just be patient and he will come.
