such exciting news! i know this is easier said than done, but try not to feel nervous about it. you can walk around dilated like that for weeks and it doesnt *necessarily* mean anything as far as labor progressing. obviously, it CAN! but your body will either show more and more signs of readiness, or it'll chill where it right now and you'll get to have your c-section at the end of the month :) our bodies are so wild and can do such cool and weird things haha

I forgot to mention I went into preterm labor 2 weeks ago I was at 1 1/2 cm dilated 2 weeks ago I got the strep B swab done today I go back for another appt next Friday

How did u get them to check if ur dilated what symptoms did u have

If your dilated that far along do they admit you?

I’m high risk . I’ll be 36 weeks Tuesday and I’m already 80 percent effaced n 1cm dilated

My Dr checked my cervix because I was dilated at the hospital in preterm labor he gave me the steroid shots for baby's lung 2 weeks ago and I stood for 2 days since then I was put on bed rest and was taking medication for contractions at this appt he checked me just to make sure I wasn't dilated anymore but I was I still get contractions here and there baby is head down also so we're thinking she's getting more and more ready I already lost my mucus plug last week I know it can grow back but like every other day I'm loosing more and more of it so she's getting ready

Ugh so frustrating!

I had my babygirl today😍
