An LJ friend of mine just had a baby at 42 weeks 2 weeks ago and her natural birth ended up being a c-section due to pre-eclampsia. HOWEVER, the baby was almost 11 lbs and honestly judging by the size of him due to "cooking" an extra couple of weeks, I doubt she would have been able to pass him through the birth canal naturally like she wanted to.
I'm not telling you what to do or anything, I'm just saying that the longer she's in there, the bigger she's going to get and the harder it's going to be on YOU when the time comes to get her out.
sweet mother, hang in there!! Good gravy, how frustrating. I have a feeling this one I'm carrying is gonna be late too...weird to say at 13 weeks but i had the same feeling with Winter being early, and I was right with that! I wish I had encouraging words....it WILL be worth it!!!

And otherwise, tell everyone to fuck off. Or mess with them and when they ask "is she here yet?" say "yes."

At 42 weeks, I'd personally go for the induction.
