My weekly checkup update!

by Kimberlee_20, Jun 24, 2009 05:15PM
So I saw my OB today, and he said I'm 2-3CM dilated, and almost 50% effaced and he believes my mucus plug is almost gone, he said he doubts I'll go more than a week, because I dilate even more every appt. I go to! Yayyyy! :]

AP I seem to be following in your footsteps on how far dilated and effaced!

Kimbee- I'm soooooooooo ciked for you! Yay! OMG so we will probably go around the same time! How exciting. Have you decided if you are going to get the epidural? I thought I would give the natural route a try but with all the pain I'm having I said never mind the epidural sounds great! I'm packing my bag tonight and waiting and nesting. I can't wait! Thanks for the update....Congrats!
Hugs,
AP

Wow! I wish my doctor checked for dilation etc at my check ups. I only get blood pressure, heartbeat and pulsing done. I wish you all the best and keep us updated to when you go in!

Wow, that is awesome news, you and AP might be the next ones to go!!!

Good for you!!

I hope I start dilating more now that Evan is head down, my dr said that I wasn't dilating cause there was nothing really there to push down on my cervix since he was breech.

AP - I'm going to try having him natural, but I am not at all afraid to get an epidural if I need it! I've been nesting since 4 months, so nest away!!

Tiger - You can probably ask your OB to check you just to see how things are going, I don't see any reason why they wouldn't.

Tasia - How dilated are you now?? I might have missed a post by you, but you're almost there!

GRose - When's your next appt.?? Let us know if you start to dilate!

Next wednesday. I have been barely 1cm for 3 weeks now so I hope something happens down there.

I am only have a centimeter dilated and I've been that way for a week and a half, I am starting to get scared that I won't go into ;abor on my own because I'm not dilating and there isn't any change in my cervix besides the 1/2 centimeter dilation.

That's wonderful.. Sounds like it won't be long!!! I have my doctors apt today to be checked so hopefully I get some kind of good news I hope..!!! I get a scan next week to see hopefully that he turned, he is breech, I don't want to have to go through a C-section so I'm hoping my butterball turns.

I have a feeling that I'm 0% effaced and 0 dilated and I'm going to drop and dilate overnight one of these days...but I'm still very early only 35 weeks :(
I'm sooooooooo tired though.
good luck girls, I hope that you all go soon and have wonderful deliveries.  I have no hope for earlier than 40 weeks :(
