Any ideas on how to help your body progress. I'm not really progressing much. 2-3 cm dilated and 60-70% effaced for a…

You’re not full term til 39 weeks. Unless you’re high risk or there’s a reason, don’t let your dr talk about induction til you’re past 40wks

@cooperd0122, 😬 I do not like when OBs do this. Well I mean, lots of sex. Semen helps. Lots of walking.

I'm 39+1 and I'm only 1cm :(

But dr said do squats, walk,sec

It might be a little weird but they say sexual arousal from your partner or just by yourself can help get you more dilated and if you climax

@cooperd0122, so put you and your child at risk because she’s on vacation? Craziness. My doctor said the same and I laughed in her face. I said I’m not risking that for the 10 minutes you’ll be in the room. All set.

Your body won’t go into labor until it’s ready. Nipple stim, rolling your hips on a ball, sex. It’s best for baby to just let baby come when he’s ready as long as both you and him are medically ok.

I was fingertip dilated up until I went in to labor. Don't stress about it. It doesn't mean much until you're actually having contractions.
