Defeated

39w and only a cm dilated and 50% effaced. I’ve actually been bawling for the last couple hours over this. I just can’t stand to be pregnant anymore. I would’ve thought I was much further with the amount of pain and lighting crotch the last several weeks. I think it’s also the thought of knowing I’ll probably make it to my 40w appointment and then have to schedule an induction then.. past my due date.. 😔

I was feeling this exact same way. I’m now 41 weeks and just joined this group as my induction is scheduled for Sunday. Today she was finally able to do a membrane sweep my cervix was softened and 70% effaced and still only 1cm. I also sobbed after my 40 week appointment because for three weeks in a. Row she did a check and couldn’t do a sweep and no progress. The most frustrating thing to me is when people tell you “baby will come when baby is ready” feel free to message me if you want any tips on things I have researched to start labor. Didn’t work for me but might for you. She was finally able to do the sweep today so hoping to go into labor before the induction

Hey Mama don’t loose hope I’m in the same boat have been 1 cm dilated and 50% effaced forever 39 weeks this Saturday and I have been having contractions for the past week but nothing strong enough to have the baby girl out. I felt so defeated at times but pulling myself through. There is so much pressure on my cervix that it’s making it impossible to walk. Just a few more days and it’ll be better. All positive energy to you .

I'm only 36 weeks and 4 days, and I’m going through so much pain. It’s primarily back pain. And I can barely walk, as well. I can’t sleep; I can barely eat. I’m not dilated at all, and I’m 50% effaced. I’ve been trying to do things to distract me, but it gets worse, especially at night. We have to stay strong!💪🏽 I’ve been holding back tears myself. It seems like when we’re at the end, time slows down A LOT. We all have come this far and can’t get discouraged now. We got this! 🤍💕
