susancollins Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 I went for my regular 35 week check up on Wednesday. I go every week now. I had been feeling sick having irregular contractions. I am dilated to a 2, 60% effaced, and -2 stations. I am planning on having him at the birth center but I have to make it to the 21st or I will have to go to the hospital. Most of all please pray that he continues to stay healthy. I have been so sick the past couple of nights. I just want him to stay in so he will be healthy and ready. My 2nd child Jackson was born at 35 weeks. Thanks so much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A.Balaban Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Lots and lots of prayers! I would recommend lying down as much to keep pressure off your cervix, and drink TONS of water. Praying you make it to the BC! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JVA Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 First off- I LOVE your boys' names. I like those that aren't the common ones. We have Morgan, Cameron, Austin and Carson Second- I will be praying for you. I hope you can be at peace and rest. I also hope the sickness will subside. That's yucky, I know. I look forward to hearing about a cute little boy. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

susancollins Posted June 10, 2011 Author Share Posted June 10, 2011 Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. I have been trying to keep my feet up as much as my other three children will let me. My daughter has been a big help. I will keep everyone updated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lisa in Jax Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 I went for my regular 35 week check up on Wednesday. I go every week now. I had been feeling sick having irregular contractions. I am dilated to a 2, 60% effaced, and -2 stations. Susan, Do you really need internal exams until you're in FULL labor (if at all)? Cervical exams are not predictive of the number of hours/days/weeks until birth and research that indicates that the more internal exams you have, the higher the risk of infection (for you and for baby) during labor/birth. They can get most (all?) of the information they need by visualizing the cervix. With a history of preterm deliveries, I'd ask the provider what the risks and benefits of checking the cervix really are. Lisa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawana Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Praying.:grouphug: Both my dc were born at 35 weeks, and thankfully, neither were in NICU, and went home in 2 days! I do so hope for you that you get the birth experience you desire at the birthing center. I do not have fond memories of hospital births, but the second was so much better, because I knew what I wanted, and asked for it. (No monitor belts, no internal monitoring.)

Liza Lee Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 One time my childbirth instructor told about having a similar situation. She and the doctor were so certain that the baby would come early that she had her mom come so she would be there to help with the younger kids. The baby was overdue. Praying for you and your baby.
