I walked A LOT outside then I went to a loud ass movie where the seats moved and bam in labor two hours after I got home.
Nothing helped me. I had to be induced. My son was way too comfortable lol. We tried lots of sex, driving down very bumpy roads, eating spicy food and drinking a ton of water
Bouncing on a exercise ball worked like a charm & lots of walking 
Both of my babies were stubborn (both stayed in 40+ weeks 
) Hang in there momma!!
Can’t always go by the due date. My son came 1 week and one day after my due date.
Ice cream…lot’s of it
Squats during a hot shower and drink lots of hot tea
I got my memebranes stripped and it worked exactly 7 days later
Spicy food and pineapple

My 3rd was 2 weeks late
Walk round the park and when got hospital bounced on a ball for at least an hr
My mother carried my brother an extra thirty-one days exactly. His due date was on my birthday, 8 year old me prayed he would not be born on my birthday, my prayer was answered lol. That being said the doctors I had for my pregnancy said sex… orgasm is most important, the orgasm will trigger contractions. My first was 11 days past her due date, my second was 2-3 weeks early, doctor induced her because he was a jerk, my son missed his due date by 46 minutes.
My son was born at exactly 41 weeks. I tried everything, even had my membranes swept 4 times! I firmly believe the baby comes when it’s ready not when we are. I know you are beyond ready but that sweet baby of yours just needs a little more mommy time

Castor oil two o ounces - half tsp of baking soda eight ounces of orange juice stir and drink quickly! Hot bath and mixed drink shall follow… relax!
Raspberry red leaf tea, sex and walking. Made my water start to leak and got admitted but water got broke by Dr 2 days later
Not just sex but sex that makes you orgasm will help induce labor. Yes the way you put the baby in there is proven to be the best way to help them get out.

Cumin Seed tea. I don’t know if it was just a coincidence but I was almost 2 weeks overdue and my ex MIL made me some and I went into labor that same night
My husband wanted a Halloween baby… so the night before we ordered wings… not terribly spicy but I ordered pineapple teriyaki and jalapeño cilantro and I went into labor 5 hours later 
Well, I got a new breast pump and decided to try it out early. Bad idea. Nobody told me it could induce labor. 
my baby arrived the next day 5 weeks early. Doctors told me it was the pump.
Pineapple…spicy food helps xx

A foot rub. Both mine were early and both came 2 days after a chiropody appointment!
Relax. Stressing about trying to get the baby out will only keep the baby in. Lol like a watched pot never boils.
I went into my drs appt on 1/17/20, Friday with NO Progress, was in full blown labor that Sunday had him Sunday night 1/19/20. Congrats and again, relax! All in due time.
I know this may be weird but have sex or atleast have an orgasm the contraction of your uterus after can kick start contractions, worked for me

They came when they came.
I ran! My son got outside when I was going to the bathroom and we lived on a very busy road. I never ran so fast in my life! I had my daughter 2 days later.
Do NOT use castor oil!!! It might induce labor, but you will hate your life and be super embarrassed!
Eat spicy food and bounce on the yoga ball.
Chinese food worked for mine🤷♀️
Have unprotected sex 
found that out the hard way… When it through me into early labor and they had to stop it at the hospital lol
When i went into false labor on her due date, the doctor told me i wasn’t dilated at all. He told me to go on long walks, have sex, and doing works outs that are meant to help and be okay with inducing labor. Me and my fiance went on 2 mile walks everyday. We even had sex ( sorry for the t.m.i.). But, it all worked and helped me dilate. I went into labor at 41 weeks. Our daughter was born August 15th,2020. Her original due date was the 8th of August
Walking up and down stairs, raspberry leaf tea and stretching birth canal either clean finger with oil on gently or sex if you want to!
Sex. Could not get my water to break last baby, the morning of the 4th we had sex for a while, and then all day I was having contractions and they got worse and worse until they were less then 5 mins apart and then the next day we had baby number 2.
Pineapple juice & lots of walking. And by lots I mean like 3 miles, lol. Squats or bouncing on an exercise ball.
If you have an appointment soon ask them to do a membrane sweep if you’re at least 1cm dilated. I went into labor in less than 24hrs (baby was a week late). Some of my friends also had it done and it worked the same for them. It’s not 100% but it works a lot of the time especially when you’re at or over your due date.
Use a breast pump to dry pump. It jump starts contractions.
I ate hot sauce with lots of parsley it did the tricm
Drink raspberry leaf tea. It’s known to induce labor.
Walk for two hours than do some squats and than drink some green raspberry tea.
Semen, it helps soften and dilate you
Pineapple juice. Drink a ton of it.
Not to be piggy but have sex
Squats I wasn’t dilated at all and did squats my water broke a few minutes later
Waiting until my son decided it was time. I tried everything to induce labor including red raspberry leaf tea, evening primrose oil, acupressure, pineapple juice, yoga ball exercises, walking, squats, orgasm, nipple stimulation, etc, etc, etc… Literally nothing helped. At 41 weeks and 2 days, my son finally decided it was time.
My Doctor gave me a small bottle of caster oil it worked like a charm water broke. Take the whole bottle early in the morning
Let those babies be born when they are ready!!! My first over a week late. My second on her due date. And my last a few days early.

I heard getting a pedicure helps 
I’m not much help cause I got induced
I used evening primrose oil and did lots of lunges!
Eat a fresh pineapple
Omg im in the same boat. Helpppppp😬
Tomorrow is the 29th. I know because my son’s birthday is tomorrow. Lol
Watched pot never boils lol stop thinking about it and get busy with something else.
I went through the same thing!! Nothing worked but an ‘aggressive membrane sweep’ by my OB
I walked and bounced on a yoga ball for 2 days.
Sleep while you can
I ate spicy foods. And a lot of salsa. It put me in labor.
I went 6 days over with my wee girl tried everything was in 3 days slow labour an 26hrs after I was only 3cms the whole time she didn’t wanna come but contractions where starting as much as I wanted to push the midwifes where against it becus I wasn’t dilating enough, I ended up with an emergancy section! Leave the baby to come at his or her own time
I’d recommend to relax like seriously relax and don’t stress over it to much baby will come when ready
I’m sure in no time new baby will arrive
I wish you luck and a happy ending
Well, I’ll tell you what worked for me. I was scheduled to be induced at 39 weeks exactly. I did NOT want Pitocin… So for two days leading up to it, I walked a lot, bounced on an exercise ball, & started drinking pineapple juice (fresh). Then the night BEFORE I ate super spicy Mexican food, bounced on my ball for probably a few hours (LOL), and tried to relax. Drank more pineapple juice, took a warm bath, and told my son “OK BDAY BOY… it’s your time to come!” One other thing: nipple stimulation the morning of.
I got in the car to drive myself to my induction, and 5 minutes down the road went into natural labor!! 
I’m not sure what actually did it, but it worked!
Membrane sewer, raspberry leaf tea and evening primrose oil. Helped for my 4th.
Pineapple and pineapple juice
Sex! Just go have some good sex! My doctor wanted to wait till 39 weeks to induce me on baby number 3. I also was stuck at 2cm. 6 days before i was to be induced i was at hospital for non stress, only for them to monitor me for hours because of blood pressure they sent me home but made me come back the next morning. The nurse even told me to go home and get some love! So i did and woke up the next morning at 6am to get ready and i was having contractions. Ended up having my son at 526pm.
My daughter was born on her exact due date so maybe he’s just waiting for his time
Have hubby take u.ridin in his pick up and hit every bump road . Might work

I had my 3rd child on Friday 27th . I was 3cm dilated at 10:30am my waters were broken for me I gave birth at 12.35pm it took 2 hours to fully dilate. Good luck
Sex,sex and more sex 
I invited all my hubby’s family over for a prime rib with all the fixin’s b-day dinner… worked like a charm!! We ate quickly, left our first born with all the dishes for our guests and took off to the hospital! Our 2nd daughter was born within 30 minutes of her Dad’s birth time, and 1/2oz of hos birth weight!
I thought it was the perfect gift… for both of us!!
P.S. was such a fast labour and delivery, never made it to the delivery room/table nor time for an epidural!!
Walking!!! I walked all through New York the week I was due and every night I would take a walk around my area
Stimulate your nipples!!! Did it for 5 mins with my son and BOOM went into labor!! Good luck!
Absolutely nothing 
except for a membrane sweep…when I was 39 weeks my Dr checked my cervix and I was only 1 cm dilated… He told me he could try but it was really not worth it and wouldn’t do anything most likely unless I was at least 2 cm… He tried and I
Nothing happened…When I was 40 weeks I was 2 cm dilated and he did the sweep again and it worked… Within 24hr I had my girls ( that was for 2 different births)
Drink raspberry tea at end of pregnancy.,Will make delivery habit easier.best of luckmommy
Don’t sitdown because everytime you do the baby moves back up. If you are wanting to sit down just lay down. Also chiropractic adjustments help, too. My third son was two weeks late.
Mineral oil take a tablespoon
Walk… slow and nice long walks…
Dont worry about it until after 41- 42 weeks

Spicy foods, lots of spicy food
Wash walls and eat spicy food
No sitting, only laying. DANCE DANCE DANCE. Anything with a motion that would seem like you would be dropping the baby or making the baby fall. YOGA! And also nipple stimulation is accurate for some women.
Its those 3rd babies ! Lol my first 2 were early and then my 3rd came late.
