I'm 37 weeks and 5 days today and went to my Dr appt. And for once in my life I want this baby to stay in until we move and I'm already 2 cents dilated..Out of all my children Ive had I've always been late 42 weeks late and never dilated this early ,but they say every pregnancy is different smh...
The doctor was trying to push me into having a c section. Told him to kiss my butt lol I didn't get to eat but that didn't stop my mom from passing me pieces of snickers when we were alone lml I was determined to give birth vaginally God willing and she did come on her own and just in time too because I was getting a fever. @childofthemoon20
I thought 24 hours of labor was bad ...how did you do it ? Was you allowed to eat?
@childofthemoon20, same with me! The fact that they said I was dilated scared the crap out of me. But I made it to 38 weeks thank God! It's funny because I had the appointment on a Tuesday, he scheduled me an induction for that Friday and I went into labor on Wednesday at 12am. Went to the hospital at 5am and had him at 8am. Shortest labor ever! Lmao I was so happy it didn't take me 3days again haha
yes that makes me feel better @ray42812 I will see when I go to the Dr again next week but im going to calm down about it I figured 2 cents wasn't a big deal I just got a little spooked because I have four children and it has never happened before lol
I was 2cm dilated at 35 weeks and went into labor after a check up at 38+5. Dilation can mean you will go into labor soon or you can be stuck at a 2 for weeks. With my first I didn't dilate or soften at all. I was induced at 37 weeks and took 3 days to have her -_- so happy this one went smoother lol
I've been getting contractions everyday back killing me and I never experienced this before but its only 2 so I will stay hopeful
i always go in 37 and 2 hoping this baby cooks till atleast week39
I was dilated and effaced around the same time but was late so you never know!
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...

Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.
Long hours of labor suck! I envy those who just go to the hospital and pop them out. My sister is one of them. Takes her like an hour between labor and birth. Lucky chick lol
