Pregnancy Update.


This is me at 38 weeks (last week). I am 39 weeks today and still. no. baby :-( I have been dilated to a 2cm and 80% effaced for 3 weeks now! Now that finals and Christmas is over this baby is totally free to make his grand entrance :-) I go to the doctor again tomorrow, so we will see if I any more progressed! My mom is here to help for when the baby is born, so we are just waiting....any ideas (besides castor oil) that will get him here this week???

Just tell him that he should come tomorrow so he can share my birthday! I'm sure that'll hurry him right along. :) I hope you're feeling alright. I'm sure you'll feel tons better once you can hold your baby in your arms! Merry Christmas!

I would stay away from castor oil...I know a few people that did that and ended up with a c-section because their bodies weren't really ready for labor. I'm sure you've heard this before, but get up and move as much as possible. It hurts, but it gets things going. And maybe have them strip your membranes. Works for some people. Good luck, I can't wait to see the little guy!

Jess will like this but a good way to get that baby out is the same way the baby got here. If you are up for some herbal stuff you can take Red Rasberry leaf Tea. Or you can check out the health food store to see if they have anything to try (if you are ok with stuff like that)Lots of walking..but that is kinda hard to do outside, you could go walk on a tread mill. Good Luck!!!

Tell Jess to step up to the plate, that'll get him here;)
