Well, I don't want to jump to the c section right away. I did also have a episiotimy, and he was delivered with forceps. Every pregnancy and baby is different. When the day comes if that's how she gets here safe, then that's that.
Im having a bunch of medical issues, no circulation in my hards and feet which they first thought was carpal tunnel, is not. I have an undiagnosed heart condition. And my son had shoulder displasia, because he was born at 40+3 9lbs 8.5 Oz, 22.5 inches. So they know my birth canal is only so big, at my 36 week ultrasound she was already measuring two weeks ahead.
Yes! But after it I literally didn't sit down I just walked and walked and walked and chugged water and started getting contractions and I was only 2cm dilated and cervix was like long and in tact or whatever. Ended up having the sweep at 10am, had contractions and lost my mucus plug, and was at the hospital by 2am and was 8cm dilated and had her in 3 pushes by 7am !
Yes. I normally would opt out of any kind of cervical check but I was so curious when it was a couple days before my due date. So I got her to check. I was 3cm and she said her head was right there and then did the sweep. Started having mild contractions the next morning and she was born on her due date.
I was already a 3cm so was hoping it would work. We're going to have to talk induction at my next appointment but I'm glad I was able to keep her in this long
Yes however I was already getting contractions during the week. We ONLY agreed to it because I would be giving myself a time to get my antibiotics since I was positive for strep b. However my labor happened fast I didn't get the antibiotics for the minimum of 3hours :/ I labored start to finish 2hrs!
I had one today, I'm crossing my fingers it works ?
No, but the threat of it did ?. I REALLY didn't want to have one, but had it scheduled for 41w 2d. I went into labor a couple hours before that appointment. My sister had multiple membrane sweeps w/both of her pregnancies, and they never worked. She said it just caused unnecessary pain and bleeding for her.
Acupuncture ?
Oh and go get a chiropractic adjustment.
Sorry not sorry that it's quaky. It will help!
