Uy sis, I feel you, 41 weeks is so tough, especially when you've tried everything na! A few of us in my mum group tried nipple stimulation (gentle, with clean hands) at that point, and a couple actually felt contractions picking up within hours or the next day, though hindi guaranteed. Some moms also swear by fresh dates (the actual fruit, not juice) eaten daily for a week or two before, and one friend did a combo of that + lots of walking + warm baths, pero honestly pati siya she ended up with induction pa rin, which is totally okay din!
The thing is, at 41 weeks your doctor might be talking about medical induction soon anyway para sa safety, and honestly that's not a bad thing if natural methods aren't budging. False labor is SO frustrating and draining, I know, your body's just not ready yet, which happens.
Since you've done the pineapple, primrose, walking, at luya na, maybe try the nipple stimulation or fresh dates kung gusto mo pa mag-try, but definitely chat with your OB about what they're recommending next. Every body's different, and at this point your doc will know best kung kailan to move forward with induction. Kaya mo, mama!
