I am just 2 days overdue and have also tried everything within reason. Hoping to schedule induction on Monday if nothing happens. On the bright side, he stayed in long enough for me to see Star Wars without having to take a newborn...because I would have haha
I still have 5 days and am going crazy so I feel for those of you who are overdue!! With every little pain or weird feeling I get excited... For no reason!! I feel like I've tried all the "tricks" with no luck, also have had two membrane sweeps. Hmmmmm. Good luck, soon enough they will be here!
Due tomorrow but I'm ready for her to be out. I wanted to take some pretty pictures of her with Christmas stuff. Been going on walks and had a sweep and nothing. I was told I had false labor the other morning. I've been cramping all day but nada -_- doctor said she'd be surprised if I made it to the weekend so I hope she comes soon!
Haha and @abened ! I always joked that maybe she would send me into labor during the crawl of Star Wars!! (Was a super painful/uncomfortable day too so I almost thought something might happen lol) when the movie started my husband was telling her to stay put in there!
Day 6 overdue for me. It wouldn't be so bad if I was actually sleeping but not so much! And I think I'm going to freak out at the Christmas parties we are going to over the next few days at anyone who says "oh the baby's STILL not here???". Yes, I'm still pregnant. I realize.
Due tomorrow and no signs of baby girl yet. I have a killer backache and some cramping, but nothing indicating she is coming any time soon. Had to have the induction conversation with my midwife yesterday. Really hoping baby will come on her own before we have to force her out. Set up appointments for testing at 41 weeks so I can go to 42 if necessary, as long as everything looks okay in there.
Good luck ladies and I hope your little ones arrive soon!
Technically not overdue, but I still feel your pain. Its really hard being due at the end of the month on a forum like this. I love seeing all the beautiful birth announcements but its also kind of making me crazy.
Due in four days but for the last month my Doctor has said she didn't think I'd make it to my due date, so we've been beyond ready! I feel if she hadn't voiced this guess we wouldn't be so anxious...we really thought we'd have our little guy or girl here for Christmas but sure isn't looking that way!
I am a week overdue and was supposed to be induced today. Beds are full so they said they will call me tomorrow and have me come in. Might have an Xmas baby!
I've had an extended stay in the hospital because I developed an infection after my extended labor and ultimate csection and baby's blood work was abnormal (fingers crossed the last test is normal tonight!). Being here, though, I've heard the nurses talking about how many women chose to be induced today and yesterday. At one point this morning there were 21 babies in the postpartum recovery ward. I think lots of women were hoping for Christmas babies!
Same boat. My cervix is still thick and I'm only 1 cm dilated. My due date is Wednesday and I'm getting induced that morning. I'm getting a catheter placed in my cervix tomorrow night to hopefully help dilation and then I go in the next morning. Everyone's telling me I need to wait it out, my baby's not ready yet. You don't think I WANT to go into labor naturally? At this rate, this baby's going to be overdue and I'll have to get induced anyway. People are rude. I'm trying to get excited and everyone's just bashing me for getting an induction.
I'm 2 days over due. I go see the doctor on Thursday and I'm pretty sure we will be getting this baby out come hell or high water. He's been talking c-section because baby seems big! I was hoping he was going to schedule me to be induced last week, but baby and I are (seemingly) super healthy so there's no real reason!!

So yeah I'm fed up and given up expecting him to come on his own. 2 days until my induction
Hope you ladies go into labor right after Christmas (because who wants to spend the holiday in the hospital). :-)
