Good luck OP!
I'm encouraged by the way your doctor is working with you. I recently switched to GW for my new pregnancy, and have found this thread very useful. Thanks for sharing your experience!

I'm very thankful that I have many of the tools to try to help him along. I'm now working half days so I don't just sit at my desk all day...I walk the dog frequently and try to keep busy around the house to avoid just sitting. I cook and clean and all that. I was hoping all of that would HELP! lol
I am only sharing, really, because I think it's important for other moms-to-be who are in a similar position to know they aren't alone. So many threads are about "so you think you had a natural delivery" and "any medical intervention is bad!". I very much worked to get this to work in my favor - and it still just might! But, you can't always be in charge of everything and the ultimate goal is a healthy mom and a healthy baby.
Your last sentence is most important. You can only control so much. Beat of luck for a healthy delivery!

Good luck OP. for what it's worth, my baby was not engaged at all when I was induced or even during much of my labor. He descended all at once and I had a very short pushing phase.
