TRYING TO AVOID INDUCING

Dakayla

I am 39 weeks & 2 days, with NO PROGRESS! My doctors visits are on Monday, last Monday (7/1) I was not dilated, 50% effaced, and a -2. This Monday (7/8) still not dilated, 60% effaced, and still at - 2. I’ve been trying raspberry leaf tea and walking at least 4 miles everyday. I’m due this Saturday (7/13) with no hope at all of it even happening. With not as much progress as I hoped my doctor has brought up inducing, the next Monday (7/15). I’m trying my hardest to avoid this option being that I want to do it naturally and in a tub, for me this is a long shot being that this is my first child and I’m good with pain. I’ve been looking up ways to naturally start labor, if you guys have anything that help please comment!!
