Dilation of Cervix

Hi Mommies, anyone still has not given birth by 39 weeks and baby is still baking inside? I'm due next week, Monday 20/01. I have opted out to not let the Gynae do a membrane swept on me as I do not wish to feel uncomfy and wanted a natural birth as in self pain, cervix open by itself rather than the Gynae dig and check. Naturally, how do you make yourself dilate easier? Sex? Housework? Walk? All I did. But feel nothing le.

I also did all that you did. Cervix took forever to dilate 😭 When my gynae checked me in clinic at 39+4, she said I was 4cm dilated. But I still didn’t have regular contractions yet, and really really wanted to deliver asap. Haha. So I said ok to the membrane sweep, and I went into labour by that night. Heehee.

Ahhh, then I wait ahhh. My scheduled appointment is on my EDD, Monday. Think I should bring my hospital bag already. Just in case they really want to check me. Thanks Mommy!
