UPDATE

Hey everyone. I just got back from my doctors appointment and I was not leaking amnotic fluid but I am finally beginning to dialiate.... I am now 1 cm and when he checked me it hurt really bad. I think he did something because I am now loosing the rest of my mucos plug and having contractions... What could he have done??  Thanks to everyone who answered my previous post.

Sex and walking! Keep doing the naughty and hopefully the sperm will help you dilate more. It honestly sounds like he stripped your membranes and that usually means baby will be here within 48 hours. Wouldn't that be exciting?

You guys should go on a walk right now if the weather is nice!!!

Squatting lol believe it or not it helps wonders. I walked around for 3 weeks at 3cm dialated because Aidens head wouldn't fall into position, squatting helps open your hips up so baby's head can fall into the birth canal.

I had ended up doing a few squats every half hour with the help of my step mom, and later that day I went into very quick labor, from 3cm to 7cm in 30 minutes lol.

Have something to hold onto if your going to try this, I would hold onto my moms arms put my heels together like with my toes pointing towards the sides and squat. Id hold the position as long as I could and repeat about 5 times every 30 min ontop of lots and lots of walking.

Your cervix needs the babies head to produce pressure and stimulate dialation.

I wish you the best of luck and hope you get to hold your little angel soon.

Thanks Joy.... I just think it is a little early for him to be doing that though but maybe he is sick of me... I would love to walk but it is icky here.... I am in the Saint Louis area Saint Charles to be excact and we have gotten so much rain our roads are slightly flooded. When did your doctor strip your membranes?
