Am anxiously waiting for my bubs to arrive. The ultrasound says she was due on the
17th, but dates say 19th...either way, she is smack bang in the middle, and I am getting so much pressure on my cervix, half the time I feel as though she could pop out right then and there!
During an internal on Friday, my OB 'swept' my membranes, and I lost the mucous plug. Then today, I had to see the OB covering for my usual OB (who has gone on holidays for a week...) and she did another internal, and swept the membranes too. Since then I've had a more bloody show (sorry if TMI) and a more acute awareness of pressure and period like ache down there. ALso having some headaches I can't seem to shake, and feel a bit nauseous now and then. Could things be moving along???
Apparently my cervix is still a bit firm, but 2cm dilated and 50% effaced. I hope she decides to make her entrance tonight, we are getting so bored twiddling our thumbs!!!
