Enjoy these last few days/weeks of being pregnant. You may not believe it, because I sure didn't, but you'll miss having that baby belly. I went to 42 weeks, and finally went into labor 24 hours before I was suppose to go in to be induced! I went back and forth for 5 weeks being either 1cm dilated or nothing. When I went into labor, it crept up on me with contractions starting very very faint for about 30 minutes but were every 5 minutes. 2 hours later, I was definately in labor and pain, and was rushing myself to finish getting dressed(took a shower and stuff cause I knew at 5 mintues apart no matter how faint they were I had to go to the hospital) and making sure I had everything ready for sure. When I got to the hosptial, I was 4 cm and a -3 station. My son never got past a -3, no matter how much sex, walking, etc. I did, so I end up having a c-section.
My son is now almost 5 months old, and I miss him being small and cuddly(now he's a wiggly worm!). He is amazing, and I can't wait to do it all over again!!!
Good luck and Congrats!! You'll be cuddling that baby soon!

Don't feel bad I carried my first 42 weeks then indured 42 hours of labor with no pain medicine. Trust me, it could be worse. The cramps are your cervix stretching out. Keep walking and have as much sex as you can, but make sure you get rest to because when it happens your gonna need your energy. It will come out,I promise lol.
