Dilating

What are some way to help naturally get your dilation going. I'm 1cm and 75% efaced but my contractions are back to back and hitting strong.

Try sitting in a squatting position while you watch tv for awhile, up and down stairs is really good because it gets the hips moving. Any walking is helpful really (: bouncing on an exercise ball or even the edge of your couch with your hips/legs spread wide. Good luck!

What if your baby hasn't "dropped"? Dilated to 1 and baby not dropped, 39 wks. I'm tired and want to have my baby already!
