So I am only 1 cm dilated but with the ever-increasing BH I feel like this is gonna be the start of an uphill battle to get to my goal of at least 37 weeks!!!

Just curious if anyone has any positive experiences that started out similar but made it to full term????

ThanksSmile

    Bummer!!  I'm a "finger tip" dilated and really hoping these BH don't cause that to change.

    why did your doc do an internal? were you having other symptoms?

    www.keepemcookin.com has good info

    I used to be Goldie_locks_5 but the new nest is so screwed up that I was forced to start over.

    I have been on bedrest since 24 weeks due to shortening cervix so she wanted to check to make sure everything was ok.  (She did not check at my last appt ~ 2 weeks ago) so I was "due" I guess?

    Thanks for the link, I will check it out!

    I started to dilate at 28 weeks with increasing contractions and OB put me on Procardia.  It really helped with the contractions.  I didn't dilate further until 35 weeks when I actually went into labor and delivered.  Hang in there!

    Very similar for me! I was 1cm and 25% at 27w5d. They started Procardia every 6 hours and modified bed rest. I was 2cm and 50% at our appt Wednesday. Still doing well so far, but I am starting to feel my contractions and they seem to be more frequent the past couple days. We've made it (at least) 6 more weeks though so that's good! Hopefully we can make it at least two more :)

    I've been on bed rest for 8 weeks now (in hospital).  I get cervical length measurements done weekly.  For some reason, the MFM doctor checked me at 29 weeks and I was 3 cm, 50% effaced.  Not exactly what you asked for in your post, but wanted to let you know you weren't alone.  I haven't been checked since then (almost 2 weeks ago).  I think I'd rather not know!
