when?
I have been seeing the mfm specialist all along now and finally got the green light that I can have my baby girl any time. I am now 70% effaced, 2cm dialated, and the babys head is engaged. I am so uncomfortable and ready to have her now. My dr says if I dont go into labor on my own b4 hand they are doing a csection on the 28th. What do you think my chances are of actually maken it to the 28th? Any help or opinions on when?
I am 36 weeks now. All of my 4 sons were born early,the last 2 by emergency csection. I have been on the p17 shot to try and keep me from delivering to early this time around. The drs feel if i go into full on labor the intensity of the contractions could cause my uterus to rupture so theres no question that I have to have a csection at least afew weeks sooner than i am due. I have only carried past 35 weeks once so I am nervous to be this far along and knowing that once I hit 50% and 2cm with earlier pregnancies I delivered within days.
How many weeks are you....it really doesn't mean anything you can be two cm and 70 percent for weeks...if baby has no health issues and your only problem is discomfort I would refuse c section and wait for my little one to come out when ready...I'm pregnant with my fifth and I know what kind of discomfort you are talking about I just put up with it for my baby
