I’m not dilating at all. So I have a couple questions to ask;

I was dilated to a 3 at 38wks and still had to wind up being induced when I hit 41wks. And then labor was 48hrs! Dilation doesn’t mean much until active labor

@naniibear, alright that’s it. I’m about to change your name to nana 😂 has your SO tried rubbing where it hurts?

@tanirani, I know nothing about yoga 😨 all I do is bounce on the exercise ball but never a full bounce because I give up as soon as I bounce a couple times 😏😂

@tanirani, it’s mainly in my upper back 😒🙄 which is so weird, because I know it should hurt in my lower back... but for some reason there’s like a pulled muscle up there or something that just won’t let up!

@babybumplump23 @naniibear, yeah! This pain is intense sometimes! I also noticed prenatal yoga makes the pain a bit better at least for me.

@babybumplump23, absolutely!💙💙💙😘

@naniibear, we just get each other ❤️💙❤️

@tanirani, @dinamarie1995, thank you guys! I never knew what the lightning crotch was. I read about it, but had no clue that I was experiencing it 😂 it makes sense now

Wow, I thought I was reading my own post lol. Same with me 🙄😖 but we’re almost there!

Hey! I’m at a simile stage 38.5 weeks, closed up, no dilation, Doctor was not concerned. I also get pain it’s on and off. It’s normal to dilate just before giving birth at least what I read. I’m tracking movements as much as I can that’s what my doctor recommended

1. Yes some people don’t dilate until delivery.

2. Yes he’s running out of room

3. Yes labor can happen anytime and progress fast or slow. Hopefully it will be a fast labor!

4. Lighting crotch and it sucks.

Your almost there mama good luck!!
