40 weeks and 2days with no sign

You can continue to wait and do some exercise to help dilate further. But truth be told, its hard to tell how fast you’ll dilate & how long it’ll take. Of course I’m not suggesting to induce either, i was at 40 weeks 2 days, with 1cm dilation, took me 8-9hrs of contraction, 12hrs of wait to only get to 3/4cm. In the we had to go for emergency c-sect because baby pooped a lot while I was leaking amniotic fluid (yet to manually burst it) and if she inhaled her poop before I’m 10cm dilated (which can be another 8-12hrs wait), it would endanger her. Yet on the other hand, my friend was 3cm dilated, she induced at 3am and baby pop 12pm. So honestly, it really varies. Trust your decision mama, but whatever happens, I’m sure you just want the best for you and your LO! I went through 8hrs of contraction without epidural, to end up having a emergency c-sect instead of just going for elective c-sect from the start, I still never regretted my decision!
