35 week checkup
Went to my weekly checkup :) got my group b test done as well as a cervix check. Doctor said I'm 2cm dilated :) happy to know my body is progressing. Happy to know these painful Braxton hicks aren't for nothing. Anyone else dilated already?

Im 33 weeks and as of last friday Im 2cm dilated. ?? should I be nervous? Lol..2nd baby after 14 years...

@lilmama85 I wouldn't be nervous. It's a good sign your body Is preparing but it's not a indication that labor will start soon :( I was dilated at 4 with my last kid and never went to active labor until I got induced

Ladies who are still closed, have you tried drinking Red Raspberry Leaf Tea? I started drinking it a while ago and it's supposed to tone your uterus and help your contractions be more productive :) plus it has many nutrients. Maybe give it a try.

I have actually doubled my RLT intake the last 3wks. And I’m taking EPO too. Baby & body are just very happy together apparently. Lol I thought for sure this last check that I had progressed with how aggressive the BHs & bouts of contractions have been. ??

@mommabax don't get discouraged I'm sure your body will progress wonderfully once baby says it's ok hehe I hear so many stories of women going from 0 to 10 in less then a hour. So there's hope :) I think the rrtl is making the Braxton contractions more painful because every since I started it, it became more intense. Are you taking the rrtl capsules as well? I'm drinking tea and capsules

Yes I’m 2 cm too at 34 wks

Kristina, I agree! I definitely noticed an increase in discomfort with the addition of RRLT. I’m just doing the tea...I meant to order some capsules but never got around to it. It may be in my near future if I get checked again this week with no progression. I’m not rushing it, just really hoping to avoid an induction like I had with my first. Fingers crossed my body & baby get on board with that!! Lol
