Still Pregnant....

Topic says it all lol. I guess lastnights back pain was nothing. Im still pregnant and I don't have any signs of having Conner anytime soon. I am going to do my daily ritual of cleaning my house. I have a docs appointment tomorrow, so maybe I can get some good news.

Does anyone know how dilated you have to be in order to have your membranes stripped?

Im going to be begging my doc to try it tomorrow.

Hey Kelly! Im glad your doing well. I am atleast 4cm, unless these BH contractions I have been having for 2 weeks have been dilating me. Im hoping my doc will do it for me to try and get things moving along, I am super uncomfortable and nothing has helped bring this labor on. I have literally tried everything....including castor oil lol.

Anyways Im really glad your doing well, and don't be such a stranger! lol

Hey. Long time no talk. I dont really have time to come on here anymore. I cant believe you are still preg. I guess Connor is too warm and comfortable in there (even though you probably arent). When i went to L&D I was having contractions but they werent regular enough and i was only 1 cm so they were going to send me home but my blood pressure was high and wouldnt come down so they midwife stripped my membranes and then had me walk beacuse they didnt want to technically induce me but the walking made my blood pressure worse so they started the pitocin.  I dont know how much dialated you have to be but i was 1 CM. I hope he comes soon!! Good luck!
