L&D Update...Day 2

Well nothing has changed. Im still not dialating. Im at 4cm and 10% effaced. Conner has dropped a little bit but he isn't engaged, or even close to touching my cervix yet. Conner is still handling everything like a trooper, he even got a bit ticked off at the technician when she was adjusting the heart monitor strap thingy lol.

They were talking about induction on the 1st if I don't either go into ful blown labor, or the contractions stop. They are worried that my uterine muscles will tire out and not contract hard enough when I am in actual labor. I also have the option of trebutaline or magnesium to try and stop it, but those meds make me feel awful, so im opting out on those.

We will see.....maybe if I go out walk, water my grass and rescurb my floors, and weed the garden I will move something along lol

I also wanted to add im not 10% effaced im 100% lol missed a zero.

Ramseyh17- We have been doing the special dance *sex* every morning and every night. So needless to say hubby is quite happy and im just doing it to try and get the baby out lol.

Today we walked to the park which is a half mile, played with the boys for 2 hrs, I was swining on the swing a lot, walked a lot, played a lot lol and walked the half mile back. Then we came home, boys got a bath and a snack, and I went and watered my grass and squatted the whole time lol.

I am just exhausted and I want to finally have my baby bub!

My advice is SEX and more SEX and also walking. These things have put me into labor twice. Your hubby will like the idea if this. Mine did LOL If you are anywhere close to delivery then these things will help get things going. Good Luck!
