Assessing dilation without an internal exam

An interesting read for anyone who may be planning to labor at home for a while before going to a hospital or birth center.

Another link on the purple line idea too.  This one has graphic photos though.

This is interesting. You realize a bunch of pregnant women are now checking their butt cracks for lines? Lol!

Lol!  Too bad it's not a guaranteed sign tough, or if it does show up, it might not be until you're 8 cms.  And you know that at 8 cms, I'm in no mood at all be checking anything!

Thanks! That was really interesting. I liked the info on fundal height. I hadn't heard of that before.

Click where it says interesting read. It's hard to see on mobile.
