got my first dose of cervidil last night at 1030. after 12 hrs my cervix has not soften yet. so i will get another dose. the contractions were so horrible and it felt like one continuous painful contraction. i didn't think i was going to last another 12 hrs of that. so i gave in and got the epidural. not what i wanted, but i could barely think from all the pain. so, my baby might be here tomorrow. 😥
@momtobe0716, it's so uncomfortable when they put it in. and worse when they check you after its been in for a while. my mom said had i gone to labor naturally, i would've been able to put up with the pain. but, it was too intense and the contractions to close together. 24 hrs of this, i just couldn't make it. i hope it goes well for you, and the first dose works. good luck!
Well that didn't work for me so then they put a balloon in to make me dilate
@constancetinople, that's my fear I go in at 5 tonight to start the cervadil. I am 70% effaced and maybe a finger tip dilated . I'm so nervous it's going to hurt going in and not do anything
@eryka616, I'm guessing that's what they will do. idk why they even bother with the vervidil then, i doubt this secobd dose is working :/
