I had my 40 week appt (a day early) and I had been at 2 cm / 50% effaced for three weeks. Today I am 3.5 cm and 80% effaced. Hooray, the doc says he doesn't think I'll make it to the induction date we set for Feb 1st. Hopefully our little girl will make her appearance soon.
Re: Hooray for Progress
I'm sorry...I have no tips. I haven't tried any of the old wives tales. I don't know why I haven't tried anything...I guess I was skeptical.
That's great! Sending labor dust your way!!
Last Tuesday I was 3cm, 50% effaced and my OB didn't think I'd make it through the weekend.
Now here I sit...still waiting =(
