So I just got home from my appt went from a "fingertip" to 1 cm dilated. Got my membranes swept it hurt so bad but happy it's done. Gotta go back on Wednesday the 19th. Hoping I don't last. They set an induction date for the 23rd -_- that's so far away from now!

My next appt is on the 19th also. I hope I have her before that to. my doc said she might weigh like 7 or 7.5 pounds already. she needs to come out. I lost some of my mucus plug this morning but I don't think it means anything because it wasn't bloody.
Bre·
Yeah she told me my son weighs around the same thing and I lost some of my mucus plug on Monday but there was blood for me either :/ @mommysarah7 and hoping really soon @makeartnotwarr69 I can't wait to post pics and everything :)

I really don't want to deliver an 8 or 9 pound baby. especially for my first. I want her to stay a baby as long as possible. my baby has been super active lately. her kicks and punches are so strong. she's beating me up lol. I just want my water to break or something! @waitingonnoah20
Bre·
Yeah that's what I was saying. and they want me to wait all the way until the 23rd to be induced, he's gonna be huge by then! lol I have so many videos of him sliding his foot all over. And his little body poking out to be rubbed haha its adorable but I wanna see those movements not in my stomach! but yes if I don't go into labor by Monday I'm gonna go crazy. @mommysarah7

right! they haven't even set an induction date yet. my doc said he would do that at our next appt. I hope he doesn't set it for after thanksgiving. she's due the 21st I really don't want to wait until the 28th. I wish I could get videos of her doing that but everytime I try to record she just knows and stops moving lol. I wish I could naturally induce her. I've been bouncing on a yoga ball and trying to walk but it's not doing anything. plus my doc doesn't recommend evening primrose oil so I can't do that.
Bre·
Yeah I walked from my appt to try to help with the membrane strip. and its hard for me to not catch him on camera lol I'm due the 17th but to my doctors I'm due the 19th 😒 they switched it on me. I'm just going to keep doing squats, eating spicy foods and walking idk what else to do & I don't believe in taking castor oil or any of that stuff. @mommysarah7
valerie·
aren't you due on the 17th like me ? that's weird girl there inducing me on monday ....
valerie·
@waitingonnoah20,
Bre·
Yeah! my doctors suck they don't want to induce me before 41 weeks. I really don't want to wait that long to have him so he needs to come on his own asap. but I have been losing my mucus plug, no blood yet though. @valerie_07
valerie·
have you gotten a membrane sweep? walk walk walk lol @waitingonnoah20
Bre·
yup, I walked home from my appt instead of driving lol my bf walked right along with me. I've been doing squats on & off since I got home. @valerie_07
Bre·
We're gonna go for another walk tonight and 2 times tomorrow. @valerie_07

I walked when I got home from my membrane strip to. it didn't do anything. how many squats do you do? I haven't really worked out this pregnancy so idk. I don't believe in the castor oil either because it can make the baby poop in the Sac and baby could possibly swallow it not good and not worth the risk. I just really want my baby to be here b4 thanksgiving. I want to be able to eat! lol or she can come on thanksgiving because it's my dad's bday and he would be real happy if she was born on that day. but I just wanna see her little face. have you heard of anyone who induced labor by spicy foods? @waitingonnoah20
Bre·
I do 10 squats then I hold one then do 10 more. I do em about 3 times a day. & yeah the whole castor oil thing is scary, I'd rather wait. I'm happy I know I'll at least have him before Thanksgiving lol I need to eat lots of pie! haha but I haven't heard of anyone going into labor from spicy foods alone. probably mixed with exercise & all of the other little things you can do. @mommysarah7
