How much worse can it get?

WatchPot · January 2012

I'm 1cm dialated, at a -2 station, so like, no progress at all, but I SOOO sore. My hips are killing me everytime I take a step and I feel like there is a watermelon between my legs (sorry TMI).

If I'm this uncomfortable now, how much worse is it going to get? They won't even talk about induction until 42 weeks, so 3 weeks from now!!!

Ugh! I'm so sorry, S. I will be sending labor dust your way. I certainly hope you don't have to wait the 3 weeks! {{Hugs}}

Hugs girl!!! Let me know if you need anything. M and I are around all week with no big plans.

I drank castor oil to put me into labor Not saying it was the right thing to do but it worked.

Can you have them strip your membranes? I had it done with both kids, it did nothing with Audrey so with Rye I was hesitant since I thought it hurt like heck! My Doc said with #2 it works better....she was right, he was born less than 18 hours later. You might want to give it a try!

I'm so sorry! The end is THE worst time. Sitting on the exercise ball helped baby drop and helped my hips when I was pg the first time, and second time around, both times I went into labor (pre-term and then when I was 38 weeks) was from sex. Not the best sex you'll ever have, but helps things move along

I know it seems like forever, but he'll be here soon!

Ah, I am so sorry. With W I was nothing at my appt on Wednesday and went into labor Friday night. We walked a lot, then walked some more. We were also having sex daily. Not sure if any of it helped but it made me feel like it had to be doing something. I also sat on a yoga ball in the evening while watching tv.

Hope he is here soon!

Sorry S! I would have them strip your membranes in another week or so. They did it on my due date with Max and it definitely kick started things. For me it was unpleasant but not terrible, definitely worth it. Hang in there!

We're in the same boat! Here's hoping labor dust heads both our ways soon!

I had similar pains towards the end, and I second the labor ball! It really helped that "She's going to fall out" feeling. And agree to start doing what you can to start labor naturally
