LOL. its a little insane. I'm having contractions but they aren't strong enough. I feel if my water breaks I will seriously have a kid in 10 minutes. I wonder how long I can hold on this dilated.......how are YOU doing?
& the ONLY day of the entire year I don't want to deliver is tomorrow: MIL's bday. FML.
That is REALLY awesome. At what week did you start dilating? It is so interesting how everyone's bodies work so differently. I hope that when I get to that point my body has already done some work!!
Have you been really active? Lots of walking? Or anything like that? And is your baby measuring big or average size? I am so curious because my doctor is already talking wanting to induce me a bit early because my baby is big...which I knew he would be! But I do not want that and want to make sure I try anything natural to help it along.

Nothing out of the norm....I can barely walk around the block (or waddle should I say?!) DH is 6'7 & I'm 5'8 so I'm pretttty sure we are having a huge child! I haven't done any of the evening primrose or tea or anything crazy like that. I've been off work since September too so I've had LOTS of down time. I'm measuring normal (no ultrasounds to measure). Good luck!
I'm 4cms, 80% effaced. At week 36 I was already 2cms. I have done a TON of exercise...hiking & walking the most. No teas or anything like that. I've been waiting like this for 2 weeks now!!!! Very frustrating! But when labor finally kicks in for real, I've been told it won't be very long before I'm ready to go...hopefully!
I just had my 34 week appt yesterday and I'm 2cm, 50% effaced. I'll be 35 weeks Monday, but I'm really hoping baby (and body!) decide to slow down and wait until (at least) week 37! I'd give you both my centimeters if you could take them Bonzer! Having my doctor tell me he thinks things will really progress in the next two weeks is slightly scary...I mean, I thought I had the whole month of November to finish "preparing!"
Re: holy crap! fiona? 5cm and 100%?

Do you walk a lot? I'm 1 cm but I've just been kind of sitting around. If I could be where you are at 39 weeks I'll get up off my butt.
I'll throw one cross country for you. Come on baby bonzer.....your mommma is done.
