UPDATE- I saw my midwife today.

I went to my obgyn's office today and saw one of my midwifes.  ( There are 5 midwifes there.)  Well... I was told that I'm still 3cm dilated,    ;-(     But I'm 65 to 70% effaced.  I was told that my cervix it VERY thin and that Elijah could come any day now.  She said that if they had to induce me for any reason at all they could at this point.  I'm SOOO tired and every thing hurts.  I keep feeling like I'm going to throw up but I never do.  They told me that thats due to my UTI.  Well... I'll write more soon.  Anita

LOL!  That would be funny.  There is a full moon on the 9th.  So maybe I will not go past that.  Only time will tell!  I hate the waiting game that comes with pregnancy!  Anita

As far as I know its safe to deliver with a UTI.  They never told me it wasn't.  I'm curious about that now too.  I will be SO glad when its gone... it really ***** lol.  I keep feeling like I have to pee but nothing comes out lol.  So I'm up and down all night long.  Leaving me tired all day.  I'm just praying it happens soon.

Hang in there!  It won't be long now.... I am jealous of you, actually, because a lot of women (including myself) are in MAJOR pain by 3 cm!  Just think of it as a head start!

I figured you would be dialted with everything going on...good luck.
btw, induction doesn't always work i was 3 cm and the first day carter's heartrate went to 188 (for over an hour), and my bp was up. they tried again the next day and it never brought on contractions, Dr broke my water and i had him 3 1/2 hr later (with a lot of difficulty as he was suuny side up so it would've been faster probably)

Less than 2 weeks he'll be here! My SIL is due Friday and I can see how uncomfortable she is- so I definitely feel your pain.

Is it okay to give birth with a UTI? Or are there precautions they take? I'm asking out of curiosity.
