Meeee! I'm still not dilated, but the head is moving down and the cervix is continuing to soften. All good things, but after all those damn contractions last week, I really wanted to hear something more.
Still here too but hopefully not for another week. I have another growth ultrasound Thursday and I am keeping my fingers crossed that they will go ahead and schedule a C-Section. At 34 weeks he was in the 90th percentile and just keeps growing so doctor said she won't let me have a vaginal birth with a predicted weight over nine pounds.
I am just 37wks today but I haven't had any internals yet so who knows if I have made any progress of any kind yet?? I am waiting for Wednesday to come and see what the dr says....although I'm not getting myhopes up for anything!

I am here - but I am a newbie so you probably don't know me! I think I will be for awhile - saw the doctor and I am still at 1 cm with very little thinning, and long cervix. Baby is measuring at 9 pounds last week at my ultrasound so I am thinking I might end up with a c-section
i'm here... have an appt tomorrow and have my first internal. ?also, my amniotic fluid is low and they have been monitoring it twice a week. ?it's just a matter of time for me... good luck everyone.?
I'm here . . . .and I've been trying everything to get this baby out! Tomorrow I go for a "pregnancy induction" massage. Who knows if it'll work - but I'll sure feel better afterwards.

Ummmm sorry but WHAT?! you got a ways to go, sister, sorry!
Ladies - Be cautious of what those MD's tell you about babies being too big. I've had way too many girlfriends schedule C/S or be induced because of a baby being "too big". One was supposed to be 9lbs and he was only 6lbs. They can't tell with any certainty what's going on in there. Let nature take its course. Those little guys will tell you when they're cooked. A due date is just an estimate!
Me, 29 weeks and counting til my little girl. Good luck everyone!
Still here. I have my fingers crossed for the upcoming full moon. I was also told today that significant pressure changes in the weather can trigger labor which is unfortunately nothing new in Chicago.

and how do you know that thats the only reason they are getting induced or c/s?
there are plenty of reasons besides a potentially large baby.
Re: 37 Weeks +
