I could just cry I’m still only 1cm dilated come to terms that I’ll be pregnant forever

(Birth Doula here) 💗Sometimes dilation is the absolute last thing to happen! You could go from 1- 10 in a matter of hours. Hang in there mama. I know the last few days are so hard.

What @faithmarie1992, said I went from 2-3 cm to 6 almost 7 in the matter of 4 hours and my son was born that night when I go to l&d I was just about 7cm he was born 30 mins later

@prettyjazz98, Right there with ya...I just left my appointment I haven't dilated anymore either and can't get induced til 41 weeks. I'm so uncomfortable.

@faithmarie1992, yes they definitely are I wanted her to come on her own without being induced but looks like that’s what’s going to happen

@hah890, that’s what my doctor told me so I was hoping something happened but she won’t induce me until 41-42 weeks which means another week of being pregnant and in pain

@prettyjazz98, when's your due date?

@hah890, October 8th

@prettyjazz98, yeah I'm October 7th I hope it happens on its own I would rather not get induced especially now since we have to wait so long to get induced 😫

@hah890, I understand exactly what you mean!! Did you do the membrane sweep?

@prettyjazz98, omg no I totally forgot!!!! Did you do it?

@hah890, she offered to do it today but no I only had her check me if I haven’t made progress by Monday I’ll definitely get it

@prettyjazz98, I wish my doctor would have offered it! I'll definitely ask for it Tuesday if I don't go into labor by then

@hah890, lol one of us has to go in labor soon cheering you on

🤣 this was me yesterday when ppl ask did I have the baby yet I’m like no imma just be pregnant forever it’s ok meanwhile I still have 8 days until my due date

Almost there

Don't get discouraged my dr told me I was 1 cm the next day less than 24hrs later I was 8.5

@lee-lee, lol yes I’m tired of people asking if I had my baby yet like they’re the ones pregnant

@ambrebby2u, wow you’ve moved fast

@prettyjazz98 yes I did one squat got stuck and boom
