    I walked for miles day before labor started? Also found on YouTube 3 exercises to get thing moving- did 100 repeats of each and contractions started that night!

    I'm 40 + 1 today & have been trying a bit of everything all week. Sex, hot baths, walking, squats, etc. I'm at the point now where I just want to sleep & let baby cook until she can't cook any more.

    @dpmm93 - I hear you! During weeks 39 and the first half of 40, I was all about the walking and sex. My poor husband - he simply just can't do it anymore! We're not 22 anymore, and it's showing trying to have sex every day!!! (We can't wait until it's not a chore!!) We've backed off and are just going to try to let it happen when it happens.

    Due date is tomorrow and I've been working on the natural suggestions.. walking 10,000 steps everyday, mommy/daddy time, red leaf raspberry tea, spicy food. The only thing encouraging was my dr said my cervix has softened slightly in the last 3 weeks lol! 

    Now I'm feeling great pelvic pressure which makes walking painful. I'm going to spend the rest of my time crafting and watching netflix.

    40 weeks 2 days here. Contractions started yesterday but they are very sporadic and nowhere near 5 min apart. But boy are they painful. I'm scheduled for induction Monday at 3am. Gonna be miserable til then. Can't do anything comfortably except watch tv. :(

    40 and 3 here. I tried dancing a bit last night which made contrations come on pretty strong but not consistent. All the things I was willing to try had an adverse effect in the end. Spicy food gave me bad heartburn, sex gave me contractions but it was false labor so it was a lot of pain for nothing, walking/exercise feels good and has helped me the most, but still no baby. I'm just sitting on my butt for the rest of the weekend. I get induced Monday so I at least have an end in sight. I would say that walking and light exercise have at least helped with aches and pains and to clear the mind even if it doesn't get labor rolling.
