I was 9 days overdue, and I tried EVERYTHING on the list for starting your labor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/overdue-and-dilated-4-cm#post-2188943 Tue, 26 May 2015 00:24:46 +0000 QBbride 2188943@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You're gonna go fast when you go!!</p> <p>Have you tried an induction massage or acupuncture?</p> <p>Also, The weight estimate might be really off.

Just to give you hope that it can go from 0-100 in no time! You're an old pro though, I'm sure you know that!<br /> Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/overdue-and-dilated-4-cm#post-2188922 Mon, 25 May 2015 23:20:26 +0000 littleblessings 2188922@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Try jump start my labor cookies.

Sorry! No personal experience, but I know there are some ladies on the boards who had great experience with castor oil recently. Maybe @princessbaby? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/overdue-and-dilated-4-cm#post-2188778 Mon, 25 May 2015 20:00:56 +0000 1BusyMama 2188778@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hi ladies,<br /> My due date was over a week ago and this is my fifth pregnancy. I've been dilated 4 cm since last week but have had only BH once in awhile. No real contractions yet :(<br /> I don't want to be induced as I hemorrhage from pitocin but MW doesn't want me to go much longer as baby was 8.5 lbs when I was 40 weeks.<br /> I passed my mucous plug a month ago and had bloody show 2 weeks ago that stopped After 2 days. Getting so frustrated...tried sex, pineapple, stairs, walking and bouncing on a birthing ball. So done with this pregnancy already! </p>
