Defeated

Never felt so defeated with my body. I lost my mucus plug at 38w1d and lost pieces for 3 days. Haven’t lost much since I was in the hospital but still some small pieces.. I thought losing your mucus plug meant your body was dilating and effacing more but apparently it meant nothing as I’m still 1cm and apparently still have a lot of thickness.. I feel that getting another sweep on Tuesday at 39w1d won’t do anything either to have baby naturally before induction that’s scheduled for the Friday.. Why cant my body do what it needs to do..!

Be patient with yourself your body is working very hard and it knows exactly what needs to be done. Try to keep in mind that due dates are estimates and it simply might not be time yet. Your dilation can change in a matter of hours so try not to be too discouraged you’re doing amazing mama!!

@Laney she’s measuring 2 weeks ahead. 🥲 Like if I wasn’t getting induced, she’d probably be in here till 42 weeks.

I stayed at 1cm for almost a whole month love

And when they induced the process when fast honestly but this was my 3rd pregnancy

I’ve been 1cm for 5days had a sweep and now I’m 2cm. Lost my plug in those 5 days. Nothing else is happening. I’m due on Monday and I’m deflated too. I am just ready to be his mum now xx

Awe

@Skylynn my first was induced and was relatively fast once I got the Pitocin. So I’m not worried about getting induced, I just thought I’d be able to experience natural labor this time round but my body has other plans.

@Melissa girl I got my sweep 5 days ago, lost my plug and still only 1cm 🥲 and that’s with still curb walking, squats, evening primrose oil..
