Anyone over 40weeks ?

I know there have been many posts complaining about the waiting game already... 

I am just curious who else is in the same boat as I am ?  If you are over 40wks what are your plans ?  Do you have a scheduled induction or C-Section ?  What are you doing on your own if anything  (EPO, walking,etc ?)

My OB is planning to suggest we induce at the end of next week... Just really wishing I could get this going naturally first.  I have still yet to have what I can identify as a contraction.

    My due date is Saturday. I have an appointment with the OB on Monday and then we'll schedule another for my 41st week. Sometime during that week, if I'm still pregnant, we'll schedule an NST and ultrasound. If all goes well, they'll let me go to 42 weeks, but after that, it would be induction city for me!

    My due date is Monday, but when I saw the doctor yesterday I wasn't dilated at all and my cervix was still very high. So I fully anticipate joining the 40-week club!

     I have another appointment at 40w2d and we'll talk about options then - likely an induction sometime in my 41st week if I don't go on my own before then.

    If you'd asked me 10 weeks ago I would have said this baby is definitely coming early.  Now...I am not so sure.  Last week I was told I was at 1 cm and 24 hours later I lost my mucus plug but no bloody show.  Yesterday I had regular contractions averaging 5 mintues apart and lasting for 1 minute for 5 hours.  I went to the hospital only to find out that I have made no progress since last week!  I had no idea someone could have braxton hicks so consistently and for so long!  They sent me home of course but I have an appointment tomorrow..not expecting to hear of any progress.  Due date is next Saturday :(

    I have yet to go into labor on my own and would like the experience. Maybe, right? I'm progressing faster than with my other two, but I still think I've got time. If I don't get a "Honey, it's time!" moment, I'll be induced at 40w6d since it's DH's b-day and OB will be OOT after that.
