Just left my 39 week appointment. I'm frustrated. She couldn't reach my cervix to do a sweep. I'm not dilated. She left the option of induction up to me, but they'd have to use some type of mechanical dilation similar to a balloon, plus pitocin to dilate me. Induction is not what I want. I'm tired of waiting with no progress, though. I'm really discouraged

@marieterrell92, That's what she said. Mechanical dilation.

that seems odd to me. I wasn't dialated and they just gave me pictocen. did she have anyone else try to do a membrane sweep? sometimes they can pull the cervix closer

@marieterrell92, she said she couldn't reach my cervix. 😒

@aj33, Once she said that, I decided that being induced is a no go for me. She's not for induction, but she said it'd have to be a mechanical induction if I decided to do so. I'm not sure why. I guess I'll just wait it out. I haven't had ONE SINGLE contraction. 😒

Thought I'd google it to get a better picture. Foley balloon/ Balloon dilation. Also read that it was extremely painful. @aj33 @marieterrell92
