Well, now I'm on strict bed rest. Little Avi dropped from 33rd percentile to the 20th percentile, and my cervix is measuring very short. Weekly NSTs and transvaginal cervix measurements. Another growth ultrasound in 2 weeks, and staying on the lookout for any labor signs. Can't breastfeed Essie as it keeps causing contractions. Goal is to get to 34 weeks, but hopefully 36. If his percentile drops again, he may need to come out. :-/
Bed rest with 6 kids is impossible.
My cervix went from 3.1 to 2.5 within a week. :( I want to make it beyond 30 weeks.
My doctor said he would induce my labor at 38 weeks, if my baby girl still had growth issues and if the percentile dropped to 10 or less. Last thursday, it was 10 percentile, and he said if she didn't come on her own by 38 weeks, he would induce labor at that time. I'm 36 weeks 1 day today, he said my cervix was super thin, and 1cm dilated. Is there a possibility this can change... that my doctor will let her just come on her own? I don't want to be induced, i would much rather her come on her ...
Has anyone tried evening primrose oil to start soften they cervix ? My sister did it and she had her baby this morning at 39 weeks

!!!!LABOR STORY!!!!
Saturday at 1AM, lost my mucus plug/bloody show, and I was freaking out! A couple of hours later I had cramping, but felt like BH just a little stronger. They came and went, but felt stronger with each hour. Didn't sleep that whole night! I called the midwife at my hospital and told her I lost it and was having really bad cramping and she told me I was fine and was prob just having BH contractions.
The next day I was having what I thought were strong BH contractions every 10-...
I am so beyond stressed out. We’ve been struggling to find work and have been living off my daughters ssi for rent which I’m still going to be $35 short on and my child $64 a week support for my car payment which is still not enough. We are flat broke just spent the last $40 I had on my link card for a week of groceries until we get our link month on the 7th. Idk how I’m gonna make this stretch but I just got s bunch of noodles etc. I am beyond depressed. Can’t pay bills can’t find work can’t fi...

My birth story! (It's long lol) This is my little Uriah. I can't explain how much love I feel looking at his face. The pain was completely worth it. So I was awake after watching a movie with my mom and I decided to get some food and go up to dh. After I ate my water broke because I did squats lmao!!! I did 3 squats and on the third one my water burst, that was at 2:43am, I then went down to tell my mom but didn't have any contractions yet. I got to the hospital around 4:15 and at 5 they came an...
I feel for ya it's hard to b on bed rest with so many kids. I'm hoping I can make It without having to do bed rest but so far it's not looking very promising for me either. Just try to take it easy as much as u can
