What are some of the symptoms you ladies had when you new you were in labor??
@rmuscolino11, what exactly is a gel ripening? And thank you! Good luck to you as well!
@mimiz, how often did you use the restroom before knowing you were in labor? Sorry if that's too personal.
@mellmell, yeah I'm scheduled for a gel ripening next Wednesday. And my next baby dr appt is the Tuesday beforehand. If no progress is made at either of those appts then they will officially set up my induction date. I just can't wait for baby boy to finally b here no have been so miserable. I just really wish he would come on his own so I don't gotta N induced. And I'm sorry to hear u have gestational diabetes. I hope he comes before 40 weeks on his own so u don't have to b induced. Good luck!
@rmuscolino11, completely get what your saying! I feel like he just doesn't wanna come out lol. I have gestational diabetes so I need to deliver by 40 weeks and I haven't had any real signs either 😫 if he doesn't come on his own within these 2 weeks, I'll need to be induced
@mellmell, I'm curious too as I'm due any day now, but I just feel like my body isn't doing anything that makes me think it is preparing to give birth. If that makes any sense. Lol.
I may just be feeling Braxton hicks every now and then @jennatess they aren't consistent and they don't get worse
I've been feeling some pressure but not much and it doesn't last long @arijane316
@mellmell, I don't kno exactly what it is but basically they put some type of gel down there by my cervix and it should help me to dilate more and become more effaced. Then i stay at the hospital for 2 hours afterwards to b monitored to see if I made any more progress.
