so I'm currently 39 weeks and 4 days pregnant, my Dr stripped my membranes today and I've been cramping a lot. they don't want me to go past my due date which is Sunday and I really would rather not be induced so what are some ways to help me go into labor? I NEED HELP!!!! lol
I'm glad! Hey that's a good sign even tho I'm sure in your shoes I know it's uncomfortable! Plus when us moms get in that hospital and know it's time, we don't care about the pain, we just wanna hold our babies! @minderella15,
@jaxmama that made me feel a bit better thank you!! hopefully something happens tonight feeling tons of pressure and pain
Aw I'm sorry it's not that bad! People love filling people's heads with stuff but honestly before I got induced I had a slow long leak and contractions all over the place which is why I got induced. I was glad at that point because I was starting to make progress! @minderella15,
@jaxmama that's what I'm trying to avoid my Dr wants me to do a non stress test tomorrow then induction 😩😩
Well sometimes they just arnt ready and are too comfortable lol! My son made himself way too comfortable and I had to be induced at 40 weeks! @minderella15,
@jaxmama lucky her! lol my sister had hers done once too and went into labor like instantly pretty much! I guess I just have horrible luck 😩. I walked 2 miles and bounced on my ball for an hour.
Yeah I feel like the second one helped me a bit on top of exercising and staying active! Good luck tho! Hopefully it works! My sister had hers done once and her water broke 5 min later! Lol @minderella15,
@squirt22 omg my mother in law has a massage chair, I should try that! lol
This may sound funny but I walked through the mall for an hour then my mom paid for me to sit in a massage chair. I was 39 weeks and didn't have any signs of labor. Next day I went into labor and 2 hours later had my little girl!
@jaxmama this was my second membrane sweep this one I feel a lot more than the first but they did a lot with this one. I've had contractions just hoping its time tonight or even tomorrow.
The cramping is normal after a membrane sweep. I had mine done twice and it still did nothing for me. Squaring, power walking, and walking stairs I feel like helped me the most. But if you continue cramping throughout the day it could be a good sign! 😊
Walk walk walk, bounce on a medicine ball. I did this alllll day the day before my due date and went into labor that night! Get your hubby to make you laugh. That made my water break!
I was 3 days past my due date had my membranes stripped . Like you started cramping then in the middle of the night I had contractions every 2 minutes ! Lol so that's the only thing that happened for me .
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Please help!
My doctor is trying to induce me before 40 weeks because she's going to be off on my due date and says my placenta is starting to look old. How do I get labor started?? I don't want to be induced for no reason and I'm thinking I won't have a choice. Please help. What do I do to get things going?
I broke down at my moms house today ... because of the debt we owe and Passover is coming and it’s a very expensive holiday ... it was just way too much .... my mom i guess told my brother that I’m suffering and he called me over and asked me why i didn’t just ask for help, and offered to help when i need it . And gave me basically 4K to help for the month and if i need more to ask ... now one thing about me , is that i will suffer silently and won’t ask for help.... I’ve always been that way. ...
Blahh I'm so impatient I want my son anything safe that I can start now to help me go into labor before 40weeks?.
I have no friends! ?
I have no actual proper friends! I never go on nights out cos I don't have friends to go with! It doesn't usually bother me but it's starting too! My oh is busy helping his friend move today and then tonight he's out at the boxing with his mates and out after! Rhys is at his dads so it's just me and Isabella! ??
