Just wat every pregnant women doeant want to hear from there midwife "oh i cant see him being born any time soon" 😭😭😭😭 she did a stretch and sweep, well tried to but not dialated at all so she cudnt get in there to stretch. But shes got me a free appointment to get some acupuncture done with someone thats good with helping things move along and turning babies seen hes posterior atm and she thinks that could b contributing to things not happening

Congratulations Hannah. Glad all is ok, hope you recover quickly.
Good luck with the acupuncture

Congratulations Hannah! She's gorgeous! Labour is always traumatic to a degree...

Mommylov - from my experience I doubt you can miss losing your plug! I lost mine over 3-4 days and it's like large blobs of jelly. Brownish/bloody. So yeah it's pretty hard to miss.

Gumb - good luck! it's nearly HERE!!

 

[DaisyDreamer]

Pri and Gumb, GOOD LUCK TOMORROW!!!!!!!

AFM woke up to contractions 10 minutes apart that have just fizzled out to nothing. They were crampy towards my pelvis but now just zilch and waiting in limbo again

 

[Jaxvipe]

Daisy- I woke up with contractions too that have now fizzled out... So lame!!

 

[mommylov]

Just got back from my appt and we are now 3cm dilated and the dr said that Im technically ready to go now. Still hoping this guy stays put until our scheduled induction date of 2/17. The dr said that he thinks that I will still be pregnant next week but thats only because this is my first and thats all he is basing that on.

 

[Jaxvipe]

Just got back from my appointment, 4cm dilated. Dr said he would induce me next Wednesday if I wanted to be.

Wow! Feeling real yet? I can't believe you're just hanging at 4cm!!

 

[Jaxvipe]

I know! I'm kinda bummed because I don't want to be induced again I wanted to go naturally. But with my daughter I went from 4-10 in 45 minutes and my husband works 30 minutes from our house and it's another 20 minutes from our house to the hospital. So I'm terrified that we will not make it there in time and baby will be born in the car or something. So, If I don't go with in the next 7 days I think I will do the induction. I'm going to ask if they can just break my water and wait to start pitocin.

Pretty sure most places, 4cm is considered active labor already...

 

[gumb69]

Good luck jaxvipe. I'd say at 4cm they will just break your waters. I was 2 cm last week and just having ARM induction x

 

[MariaF]

I heard some ladies are already 3-4cm dilated by 36-37 weeks yet carry till 40 weeks.
Jax - doesn't help if you then have an extremely quick labour! Any chance you DH can work from home? Any other family close by?

I won't find out what's going inside until my 40 week appointment if I make it that far. So no idea what my cervix is doing. A pure waiting game here.
All quiet though.

 

[Jaxvipe]

My husband does maintenance for apartments so unfortunately he has to go to work. And there's literally no one closer than 30 minutes to us. So in a way it's better to have it planned than wait it out. I'm in so much pain that I am glad to finally have a drop dead date. Also Februaury 17th is my "2nd birthday" which is the day that my parents adopted me and the day after my dads birthday. So id be happy if he came next Wednesday.
