@taboullio84 I feel ya! Had contractions all day after my sweep but they never got closer together or stronger and now have subsided.... Baby really refuses to budge.
42+2!! Still only 1cm and 50% effaced, so my doctor scheduled me to be induced starting with cervadil last night at 6pm..hospital sent me home because there were no beds available. They tell me to call at 6 am this morning, which I did, and STILL no beds available!!! The receptionist tells me oh I'll have the charge nurse call you back at 8am sharp to give you an update and new game plan...8:20 and still no call! I know they get busy, but this is getting ridiculous!!! I'm 2 weeks past due at this point and ready to go INSANE!
39+6 today and had my last appointment. No weight gain - same as the last 4 weeks, and no progress from last week - still only dilated 1 cm. My OB scheduled my induction for June 30th at 8 PM. Hopefully, I won't make it until then, but at least I know I only have 6 more days of pregnancy at the most!
Just had my 39+2 appointment and am still only a fingertip dilated. Which I have been for the last 3 weeks. And not engaged. I logically know it means nothing, but my body could at least give me SOME hope!
I had my 40 week appointment yesterday and I am still not dilated at all not even a fingertip. Ugh. I am getting frustrated. I know she'll come when she's ready but I don't want to be induced, would much rather her come naturally. So, I have an u/s and nst scheduled for week 41 and then from there doc said we can schedule induction for Fri/Sat, as they don't necessarily want me going to 42 weeks as meconium risk increases. I am so glad there are other ladies in my shoes. I am so glad there is this thread for support
41 week appointment - 4cm and nearly completely effaced. Membrane sweep completed - hope it works this time, or just that my body is ready regardless! Waiting now for an u/s to check fluid levels and then an NST. Hey, my OB did another GBS swab, too! I didn't know the results "expire"! Oh well, it's done.
Due today. Baby is less engaged than he/she was 2 weeks ago! Wtf?!?! Still 2 cm dilated and 50% effaced. Doc thinks because baby is sunny side up that the head is not providing enough pressure on my cervix to go into labor. Gotta get this kid to turn this weekend! Otherwise going in on Monday for a membrane sweep and to schedule an induction for either Tuesday or Thursday night. This could put the kabash on my hope of having a natural birth. But whatever is best for baby I will do. Can't wait to meet this stubborn little stinker.
39 weeks and 2 days with no dilation, no effacement and posterior cervix. Induction scheduled for 41 weeks. I hope and pray I'm not pregnant that long.
Had our last "official" appointment at 39+3 with absolutely zero progress. Barely 1cm dilated and she is still high. I lost five pounds (normally a yay, but not so much when pregnant haha). We have a NST and ultrasound scheduled for Wednesday, July 1st, so after that they'll discuss induction. Crazy! I got a pedicure today and the lady kindly massaged the "no zone" of my feet, so maybe that will hurry this little chick along!
Had an NST and ultrasound today for my 41+4 appt-and they decided I can induce! Goin' back at 9pm to get things rolling. Super nervous but excited to meet my little nugget!
Saw my midwife today, found out I'm still 3cm, but now am about 75% effaced and baby is engaged and low, even though my cervix is high (she had to push baby up to check my cervix...wow) but hey, it's progress. 39+4 and I go back on Monday for my 40 week if baby isn't here over the weekend.
Had my 41 week appointment. No dilation or effacement so my midwife couldn't do a sweep - she just massaged my cervix. I know I shouldn't be but I feel pretty disheartened. Midwife said no point in booking me in for another sweep - just wait for my induction date on the 2nd July. My bump is huge (lots of "twins?!" jokes) and my skin looks like it can't take even one more day.
Can anyone remember which thread it is where ladies talked about no dilation but labour came on naturally soon after regardless? I could do with reading some experiences to keep me positive.
