ssoooo frusterated.

So I was scheduled for induction 2 hours away from my house yesterday. went down to be turned around to go back home. Imma first time mom. .y cervix wasn't ready at all. Pretty high but it was soft. They didn't wanna start induction until some kind of dialation. My due date is monday the 30th. Mind u I was taken down there three weeks ago by ambulance told I was having c section and went home... this is becomming frusterating. My dr said on the 30th im 40 weeks, and I WAS NOT LEAVING THIS TIME. Im sooooo scared he's gonna send me home again. How can I get my cervix to change? Any suggestions guys???

when the semen hit the cervix it makes your body release a hormon that is released also when they do a sweep and makes you dialate and thin out!! Hope this helps!

Ask your doctor about cervidil. I go Monday and if im not dilated then they will use that. They didn't want to start my induction bc im not dilated either and you have a higher chance of c- section if u are not dilated and they start potocin

Sex... something in the semen helps soften the cervix.. but other than that there really isnt much that can be done.
