Ladies what do they insert in the vagina to help you soften the cervix and dilate? Dr said there doing that to me tomorrow as soon as I get there.. How painful is that? I'm nervous😁
Right @squishy3 and I am hoping it will be smooth for you and not take long! Best wishes to you ❤️❤️
@britt16, ok so who knows what will happen with me tomorrow but I'm praying for the best.. Thanks ladies!
Oh gosh!! The things we women have to endure... I've had kids but never had the cervidal so wanted a heads up.. I hope the whole process doesn't take forever:( @babyjrsmomma
No after the cervidal they inserted a pill that helps dilate. They disolve within 4 hours. They did two of them. With all three cervidals and the two pills I had only made it to like a 2 but I was completely thinned out. She was able to reach up far enough to break my water and then I had automatically went to a four and then they started pitocin. @squishy3
It was extremely uncomfortable @squishy3 not going to lie 😬 because they have to put it in "dry" no gel. This was my first baby so I was all kinds of nervous
Did the cervidal hurt you? @babyjrsmomma I might end up with c section myself.. Never thought I would have one because my other 2 kids were vaginal.. I'm getting so nervous...
Yes it is cervidal (sp?) @squishy3 I had it and 12 hours late no progress. I had to have c section since doc had already discussed that with me. C section wasn't as horrible as I imagined! Baby was born 08/16 and I am completed healed. Praying all goes great for you ❤️ FYI we didn't do pitocin though
That's what I'm afraid of going through all this and it won't work and end up with c section.. @britt16 so I'm guessing you had a c section?
It's kinda like a tampon but it feels a little rough. They try to stick it in as fast as possible and part of the string hangs out. I went through three of them and barely made any progress. But I wasn't dilating or anything when they started it. @squishy3
What's a cervidal? @britt16 I hope that works fast!! @britt16 and @mommyof2016
yes it starts with a c a girl I know got it it just hurt when get contractions hit. good luck I wish I was you lol
I'm getting pitocin also but my cervix is very hard so there inserting something to soften it first then pitocin...:( @mommyof2016
Thanks girlie!! @babyjrsmomma
