Well 41+1 now, sweep today and booking induction.
They always hummed and hahhed about my due date whether late Jan or early Feb, but they are going from 27th Jan as they say its safer.
REALLY didnt want to be induced Im so frightened. x

OMG ok I am not sure why but I have very very sharp, very tender lady parts inside. Almost like I am walking around with a sharp knife inside. I am not sure what is going on. It is a constant pain not the shooting pains that people talk about.

I kinda had this earlier, I was walking and it felt like something really sharp digging in inside I am hoping cervix is doing something! The Braxton hicks are getting more and more intense and having them many times every day :/ x still nothing else though sweep on weds, hoping it does something and curious to find out what cervix is like xx

Fingers crosse your sweep works and you avoid the induction.
Too bad they won't do another ultrasound to see baby's growth and maybe change the date back. ... Although I know how bad you want baby evicted

So I am officially being induced tomorrow morning at 7:30 but not sure if I am going to make it through the night since I was checked earlier at 3:30 I have been having my first real painful contractions. I think tonight is my night!

 

[allforthegirl]

Mamabear I sure hope you go on your own!! FX

I too have been contracting all day. They too are getting stronger. I am still don't want to time them just yet. I am sure once I go to sleep it will go away if it isn't real. I just took two t1's and going to have a bath, just trying to see if this is real or not. Just trying to relax!!

 

[Dancerforlife]

Good Luck NeversayNever! And mamabear, how exciting that you've started to go on your own, I'll be thinking of you both!

 

[OurLilFlu]

Ooh it's almost like a race! Hope the contractions keep ramping up for all of you! Better to go on your own, thumbs down inductions!

 

[allforthegirl]

Oh I am positive that all will stop when i go to sleep!! I think they have already settled since my bath. On to another day of the Overdue Crew!! though I hope this isn't true for everyone cause this is just plain annoying!!

 

[Batman909]

Gl mama bear and AFTG so excited for you. I'm under pressure to have mine tomorrow because it's my aunties birthday I don't think it's gonna happen.

In other news man I'm constipated just had a poo that was harder to have than my kids like seriously! How did I not just push my baby out?!

 

[baby1wanted]

Eeekk good luck everyone having inductions / sweeps and even natural labour

Sweep for me this morning, I dreamt last night I had it done in the staff room at work with my boss watching! Officially in the overdue crew now.... Come on baby.

Batman A couple of weeks ago I had a horrendous case of faecal impaction, took me three days to sort and I also wondered how on earth I didn't push the baby out at the same time All good practice for the real pushing!

 

[3xBlessed]

Good luck to everyone and I hope those contractions were for real last night for you ladies!!!

AFM I have an ultrasound today to check if she is still breech (come on head down!) and then another internal to check cervix. I was fingertip dilated last week and have been having crazy pains down below so hoping I'm a little more dilated. Still want her to hang in for another week but want a little progress since my kids were both big and if she doesn't come on her own before due date I'm looking at induction as well. Had it with my first and prefer to go naturally!

 

[baby1wanted]

Sweep done, I am 1cm dilated which apparently is good for a FTM...? She said she had a good feel of baby's head and a good sweep around. Pains have definitely ramped up since but not getting my hopes up yet...

fX'd for head down 3xblessed!!

 

[allforthegirl]

Batman nothing really is happening here. Actually I was expecting to have a poo like you but I had to scream at my son to get out of the bathroom this morning, I seriously thought I would have an accident. i would think that could be sign but I had tons of fiber the last two days. Good 'ol fiber!

 

[Dancerforlife]

Ugh ladies I'm getting so impatient! There was a snow storm with terrible traffic, took me 1.5 hrs to get 15 miles to my u/s and was 30 min late. Now I've been sitting here for an hour waiting for them to fit me in I just want to see LO and know she's okay in there!

 

[Katiie]

would they do it if you asked them to? mine offered to do one at 39 weeks, tomorrow morning xx Bit nervous, never had an internal examination or anything so kinda worried xx

 

[Katiie]

I doubt it. I was told they arent allowed to touch down there until 41 weeks!

Ah, that sucks obviously it is different between areas as well as between countries
I have first one tomorrow morning, and then can have one at each appt after I am hoping there has been some progress down there, and that the sweep works, although I am not holding out much hope xx
