What Causes Prolonged Labor?

I m 2 cm dilated and 80% faced. I go in on the 26th to induce labor but I really don t want to be there on Thanksgiving. My contractions are 4 1/2 min apart and doc sends me home because she is still high. How do I get her to move down? I ve walked rocked bounced you name it I have 10 days left and really titled of being in pain.

Hello ma'am and welcome.

Unfortunately there is nothing much you can do. You could however request your doctor to induce labor a little earlier. But physically, there is nothing much you can do really.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
