3rd Trimester

Anyone 39+ weeks and not feeling any contractions?

I'm due on Tuesday and I feel like I haven't had any progression.  I feel like there's no end in sight, (though I know there really is).  Anyway, wondering if anyone else is in the same boat?  No dilating, no contractions, no loss of mucous plug.

  • OOhh,,

     Tonight is a full moon! You may get more than you bargained for from that!

    FWIW, I didn't feel any with my DS until after my water broke and I was given pitocen (at 41 wks)

  • Me! I am due on Monday, but feel that it will probably take longer than that (boo). I have an appt. today though, so maybe that will shed some light. GL to you!
  • Today is my 40 week appointment. Up to this point I have not had any contractions.....no braxton hicks ....no cramping......and there has been no progress in a month. I feel as if I will be pregnant forever.

  • *raises hand*  I'm now over 41 wks and haven't had one contraction.  Not BH, not anything.  I'm only 1 cm dilated. 
  • I've been feeling very few- maybe once or twice a day. Last Thursday I was 1cm and 40% effaced, but I feel like I'll be in the same position today at my appt. I think he's very happy in there and has no plans to come out anytime soon.

  • Due today and I haven't felt anything!  I'm only a fingertip dilated and getting quite impatient.

  • Due Sunday, and no more than an occasional contraction...hoping that there really is something to be said for that "Full Moon" theory.

    THIS!!! Please let the full moon bring labor dust to us all!!!

  • I am 1 cm dilated and I have MAYBE one contraction every other day. So I feel just like you - like there's no end in sight!

    unrelated to the post, but I had to chime in that you - Sarahlindsay- have the cutest dog ever! I am smitten!  

  • With DD, I felt like I was no where near delivering (fully expected to go well past my due date) until my water broke.  A few hours before my water broke, my hips really started to ache.  That was really my only clue.  My water broke, but I never got contractions, so I ended up having to check myself into the hospital to be induced.  I was nervous about an induction, but thankfully I was able to deliver vaginally, it just took a while!

    Everyone is different ~ your time will come!!

  • I'm really happy to see this post so I know I'm not alone....not that I wish no progress on any of you!  I'm due Tues and nothing.  No BH, no contractions, no MP.  Cervix is still high......yea, kinda disappointing but maybe the full moon will help....nothing else has yet!  Good luck ladies!
  • I'm not feeling anything :(
  • Only thing I'm having is BH. Nothing else!! I'm completely discouraged that I'll get to have a VBAC. Scheduled c-section is on the 3rd. *sigh* tired

  • Thank you all for responding, and making me realize I am not the only one feeling this way.  So maybe this full moon thing will have an effect on us.  Labor dust to you all !!!!!
