PS. If you haven't already, have your doctor strip your membranes...it hurts like hell but it will help you dilate. After you get this done or any other time too have lots of sex, stimulate the nipples (those two could go together) go on walks/runs swing on the swings and or jump on a trampoline...you could also drink castor oil. They say it will give you diahrea, but two of my friends have done it to induce labor and it worked within hours and neither had any diahrea. And that's all my advice. I'm sure you could find other good stuff on google!
That was actually me, not jared. accidently signed in as him
First babies never arrive "on time". It's a known fact.
