:confused: still no baby, I went to the doctor yesterday and I was told that I only dailated 2cms and I need to walk and take warm baths to relax my cervix so it can start dailating more, my doctor made me a appointment for oct 6th and told me if she's not born by then I will have to be induced. I'm not happy about more waiting, but at least I'll have my baby out. Thanks everyone for your response and help. :)

Then do exactly what he said. My doctor told me that with my daughter and I did. I used to go walking for half-hour to a hour with he father and then I did it at night. I told so many baths a day but nothing. In the long run I had to get induced. Just try the walks and baths and the results might be different for you.

I went in to be induced. They gave me something to "rippen" the cervix - that alone can bring on labor, sometimes.
My water broke about 3 hours later and then everything happened on it's own. I didn't need any further help.

I wished mines was as easy as yours Nowwhat. They had to break my first. Then everything went smoothly. The medicine they gave me through the IV knocked me out but when I woke up I was rushed in the delivery room and gave birth.

Thank you ladys I'll try my hardest to do just what the doctor told me, but it's kind of hard when you have 5 others running around needing help with homework, and fighting each other.

I guess that alone will make you have the baby sooner. Try walking a little and get time for yourself and try the bath. You never know the baby might come before next week.

Hi everyone, she's here she finally made it out,I was having some cramping on oct 1st so I went to the hospital and they checked me to see where I was in cms I had dailated 8cms at home that was around 9 something at night, she was born at 9:53pm so the doctors said I had her in 8mins. She was 6pounds and 3.8oz and 19inches long. Thank you all for being there when I needed you all.
