40w1d appt - not much progress
| Fri, 07-27-2012 - 11:20pm |
Baby is officially late. Dr. checked me and my cervix is much softer (didn't get effacement percentage) but I am still only 1cm dilated, although dr. called it "a loose 1, not quite 2." I'm a bit disappointed more progress wasn't made but dr. seemed comfortable with that ant of progress. She swept membranes again (with my consent this time and it was a lot less painful since I was prepared) and said we may explore more interventions if I did not go into labor by Monday.
I have been crampy since the appt but that could be due to the sweep. I am hoping to go into labor on my own this weekend but we'll see!
Dr. was also very receptive to my birth plan and agreed to get my consent for procedures upfront going forward.

Being patient is hard!!!
