Cervical ripening and induction?

Morgan

This is my first baby and I’m currently 4 days overdue. I just had an appointment and my cervix is still closed and baby is still sitting high. I have tried all the “tricks” at softening my cervix and inducing labor at home and nothing..I’m supposed to be getting scheduled for an induction for the day I hit 41 weeks, and my doctor also mentioned me having my cervix ripened. She explained all the different methods they used but not one in specific that would be used on me. I’ve heard it can take a long time or cause more complications, and has a bigger chance of ending in a c-section? Anyone been through the same thing, I’m more nervous than ever now…
