If there was any real fetal distress or any desperate need for your cervix to dilate, the doctor would give you the medicine that is made to do just that. Otherwise just sit back and relax. That baby will show up when the time is right. I know you are probably uncomfortable, but you should not rush nature.

I don't know of any way to help with dialation unless your body is ready for it. One thing that I have heard though is that Evening Primrose Oil can help to soften your cervix if delivery is something your body wants to happen soon.
Hope that helps and good luck!

My advice is lots of walking and lots of sex. Hopefully that will help move things along. Good luck and congrats.

Walk around your neighborhood twice. It worked for me and I gave birth the next day.

If your doctor really thinks it is time then he can give you Petosin. He must for some reason think you can do it on your own.

Lots of walking, excercise ball if you have one. Sex helps. Other than that, just hang in there.

walking, sex, stimulating your nipples- either manually or with a breast pump for atleast 20 minutes a few times a day.
Works like magic.
