On way back home! Mw said it's most likely my plug (it can be different consistencies clearly!) and it can reform-boo! And my cervix is high and posterior. Loads of bh though but off to bed now-could be days off still!
Yaaaayyy 1983! So exciting! I know they say baby could come days/weeks after having a show but still, it's a real sign that things are happening. And some women have babies hours after having it. Lets hope you are one of those women. Definitely keep us posted and good luck!!! X
Ha no further signs-well a bloody show this morning but after another trip to hosp it still is just a show-I so thought a show was supposed to be mucousy and not liquidy with a slight stretch! Anyway back home and no signs...sweep tomorrow but mw doesn't think it will do anything as my cervix is still high and closed-it needs to have started thinning at least. .all this was exciting though-despite no real progress!
As for my weight-yep im all bump but I think ill always be due to being so tall anyway! I actually love being pregnant as makes me feel more womanly and not so pole like ;-)
Maybe try go for a long slow walk this evening. Hopefully that can help thin your cervix. So close... Be prepared - the sweep is not the most comfortable thing in the world. Fingers crossed it helps get things started. X
Unsuccessful sweep-so annoying!! She couldn't even reach my cervix boooo so fed up now. Another sweep booked for Wed and then induced Friday do you know if you have to be bed bound during induction ie when on a drip? X
Oh booo. Lets hope Wednesdays one is more successful. With my induction, I had pessaries (sp?) to start and then the drip a couple of hours later (pessaries didn't seem to do anything except give mild af type pains). I could move around the room with the drip but tbh all I wanted to do was stand next to my bed. It was so quick for me that I had my epidural about 2 hours after the drip and couldn't move after that anyway. Being induced really wasn't bad. I will go that route next time too but will ask for the epidural at the same time as they start the drip. Not long now. Relax and enjoy this week!
FX'd changes are brewing...does knowing you'll be induced Friday help at all? (I just imagine I'll be on edge at the 40 week mark and out of sorts by 41.)
