I'm Currently Feeling: | slowly progressing.......:(
i had to go to hospital on sunday as was getting alot of pains i know its common with baby pushing down (i am 38weeks) ut it was to the point i couldnt sleep so i called hospital and they said come in and get checked i was 2.5cm dilated and 1/5 effaced so they stretched my cervex and gave me a sweep then yesterday i was getting pains and had a leakage of what i thought was fluid so called they told me to come in again so off i went in again it wasnt fluid so i was kinda unhappy lol but the checked me again and this time i was 3cm and still nearly fully effaced and they said that i was slowly progressing and hopefully have the baby soon so they asked if i wanted another sweep and stretch to see if we cud get things going but still nothing  lol thing is my dates of when i am due dont match up when i had sex with my hubby as he was working away when they said i concevied so i know for a fact they r wrong from the last time we had sex wud make me over 40weeks (sorry if tmi)
just hoping that things will get going soon i have even tried most of the old wives tales i guess baby just wants to take his time  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Can you have a bounce on a birthing ball? And walk up and downstairs sideways. Tried doing loads of ironing? Sorry just grasping at straws here with everything I've ever heard of! Good luck. Hope LO arrives soon!  |
