40 + 2 with baby 2 and no signs of labor - not dilated and cervix not softened

Need Advice

I had my first at 40 + 4 but I figured number 2 would have come much earlier. Does anyone have any encouraging words that may help at this time? I have an induction scheduled for 40 + 6 that I’d like to skip if possible as I went into spontaneous labor with my first no issues and wanted to do the same this time too. Is it possible to still go into labor spontaneous this time and soon? Thank you!
