Sex might help dilation, or at least continue to soften your cervix to help induction potentially go faster, so, I know tmi but me and my boyfriend have been humping like rabbits, in hopes it'll help
My doctor said she was head down nd she would see me in a week if I don't deliver by then..lol will see any suggestions to help me dilate faster?
I'm supposed to get induced in 5 days, hoping she doesn't come before then!
Im 39+2 weeks and ive been 3 cm dilated, 80% effaced, babys head is engaged, super soft cervix, membranes stripped twice and all since 37 weeks. I feel a little back pain but other then that no signs of labor... just goes to show all us women are different and body wont go into labor until baby has decided theyre ready to come out!!
I'm 36w 2d and also 1.5 cm.. And I'm having period cramping right now too, along with the back pain and aches, like my shoulders feel so weak and it makes me nervous, my hips I can feel are growing and she's definitely dropping.. But no mucus plug or water leaking, so I'm confused!!
Thats true hopefully I dilate fast so I can finally have her here I'm trying my best to walk but my body is really achy any other suggestions?
She can come at any point!
You can stay dilated for weeks, but you also can dilate super fast and have a fast labor!
It just all depends.
Remember to walk as much *** you can!!
I'll be 39 weeks Monday and I'm only 2 centimeters dilated lol
