38 week appointment today! Praying there's some dilation and effacement happening here!! 🙏🏼 #pleaselord

Praying and hoping. Is this your first check?

@tashatini, nope this will be my third and so far there's been no progress. I'm hopeful for today!

Oh ok! Girl don't be discouraged if you don't...some women stay closed tight then start dilated and effacing fast.

@tashatini, no progress.. i'm literally about to cry… I'm in so much pain and I'm so uncomfortable, I'm just so done being pregnant.

Oh no don't cry hun. :( I know exactly how you feel. Just keep walking and doing stuff to encourage it. You might wake up one day and be pleasantly surprised. Have you been using evening primrose oil?

@tashatini, girl, I've been doing it all.. walking, Sex, primrose oil, dates, bouncing on birthing ball, hip rolls on birthing ball, rocking on all fours... Feeling pretty defeated.

Aww don't do that. I always feel there is a reason for everything you know? Maybe God sees baby lungs need to develop more? You never know. I know you're miserable. :( But I just read a birth story about someone who was 0 cm dilated and 0 % effaced and went into labor the next day! Hang in there girl.

Oh and have you tried nipple stimulation? And with the evening primrose oil are you using it orally or vaginally or both?

@tashatini, yeah you're absolutely right! God sees the bigger picture and His timing is best! I'm using primrose oil orally during the day and vaginally at night before bed.

Yes girl He could be saving you both from complications just trust in Him it will all be ok.

I stick 2 in before bed of the 1000 mg then take 2 orally in the morning. Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night/morning and put one more in there.
