I went for my weekly check up today and I'm happy to say that I am finally dilating. My cervix is 2cm dilated! I am so happy that we're making progress! YiPEE! I've been walking a lot this past week and I believe that has helped out a lot. I've also tried other natural methods to help induce labor, such as: moving around more (walking in place at home (due to cold weather), moving my hips side to side, dancing, lunges, etc.), eating pineapple, eating spicy foods, including love making. Yes, sex! Lol. John and I were both kind of hesitant to have sex because first, I'm already uncomfortable as it is, second, John was too nervous after doing his 'research' and afraid it would hurt the baby. Lo and behold, I think it did the trick. Or at least was somewhat of a boost. Haha. I also had two other people suggest sex. Anyways, moving on, there are other tactics I've read on that I've been unsure about, so I decided not to take that risk. Only baby and God knows when the time is right!:) After today's appointment, my ob said that I shouldn't go a week over due. :) We'll see from here on out when baby decides to enter into this world!
