Your body will set things off & moving you just need to let it happen when your ready. It is extremely frustrating but really you are not over due really until you are past 42 weeks.
They sent me home. Said it wasn't safe, she's too high and told me to come back Tuesday, then in the next breath he said nothing will change in 48 hours... so why the frick can't you do whatever you're going to do Tuesday today???
Poor DF is feeling really depressed he's now more than halfway through his holidays and he was so looking forward to meeting her today and now nothing. Not even a gaurantee they will do it Tuesday, just "come back Tuesday".
Don't want to keep going like this. Why can't my body behave. Please no one make comments about not really being overdue. I can feel in my body- its overdue and I can't take it anymore.
Oh hun I just was about to post saying "wahooo" then read this post you've just written..... how very disappointing. I can only imagine getting to the hospital then having to come home... I'd be in tears.
I was 7 days over, and it does suck. I know how it feels. I bet it will happen REALLY REALLY REALLY soon!!!!!!!!!!!! It has to right??
Have a nice long warm bath and relax as much as you can.....try and de-stress a little bit, can your DH give you a nice massage???
BOOO to him saying nothing will change in 48 hours. I was 41 weeks with Miss A & no sign of labour, my cervix so high & closed they could barely find it. I burst into tears thinking it was never going to happen and I would end up with a repeat CS. I went into labour two and a half, three days later (which was probably 53 hours really )
All I can say to you now is this little one WON'T be in there forever, it is only a matter of days, be it one day or three, or five. You know for sure that in a week you will have your baby in your arms.
Don't let this defeat you!!!! The Dr is wrong, things can change very quickly. Just get back on the proverbial horse and don't let what he said put you off. Try and get yourself into the right frame of mind again, lots of positive affirmations and visualising your cervix opening and baby being born
How frustrating hun, keep busy, try not to worry about what the Dr has said, as Trill said, things can happen very quickly and I have to say that you are exactly right but looking at it the other way - if nothing is going to change in 48 hours why would they induce you on Tuesday regardless? If bub isn't ready, she isn't ready - sounds like she wants to choose her due date hun. As much as I hate "those" stories, I was induced when my cervix wasn't favourable and bub was too high and ended up having a c/s. Even now 3.5 yrs later I ask that question - WHY induce when all indicators show bub and body aren't ready for it. Good luck hun and fingers for you. xoxoxox
hun... this WILL happen and it will happen in it's own time, i know it's frustrating but try not to think about the 'waiting'.. bub just wants to make your more aware of it's entrance
Things can and DO change quite quickly so hopefully it's over before tomorrow.
Oh Ella!! I feel your frustration even from here! I'm on my phone so I can see when your EDD was but I get what you mean that you feel she is over...
My DS was a week over and like you I'd tried everything to evict him!!! I think I must have had something mentally going on as I had a massive big cry and went into labour that night. I think I needed to release some emotions!!
Maybe that nasty Dr telling you nothing will change will trigger something for you...
Oh and one more thing, I had a strech and sweep two days before DS was born and was told my cervix was "as expected for a second time mum but no indicators of impeding birth"
Guess my body had other plans! Things DO change very quickly, esp if you've been having pre-labour for a while!!
hot food worked for me and sex lol followed by a nice long walk and Romone dropped down nicely... Mind you walking around the block at 2am, isn't for everyone lol.... hope your little girl drops soon, little girls are stubborn lol, She will come, just keep the positive vibes going....
