Trying not to go into labor

edited July 2015 in July 2015 Moms
are there things I can do or avoid to try to stay pregnant for a full 40 weeks? I'm 50% effaced and 1-2 cm dialated and dr said she's pretty low. My mom flies in in 10 days and I'm hoping my baby girl (and my belly button) stay inside til my extra support arrives. I heard to avoid spicy foods and not walk so much, it's a pain to walk around anyways. Thanks!

    Baby will come when he/she is ready nothing will stop that. That being said with #1 I sat at 3cm for weeks and had to be induced a week after my due date.

    I wish this SO BAD! My OBs will be away at a conference for a couple of days the week before my due date and I'm hoping he either comes just before or stays in until my due date because I don't want some on call doctor I've never met delivering my baby!

    Rest up. But, as @gotdiesel2007 said baby will come when baby is ready. I don't walk and have contractions with prodromal labor. I don't do spicy food, and haven't/won't resort to using the bresst pump to stimulate the onset of contractions.
