Just got back from my 36 week appt
Blood pressure really low, but they didn't seem concerned (yet).
1 cm dialated and partially effaced.
Maybe this one will come early!!!
Due 6/7, but will induce 6/5 if I don't go on my own before then.

Re: Just got back from my 36 week appt
I am due June 8th and my OB hasn't done an internal yet. She doesn't want to see me on a weekly basis starting next week and doesn't plan on doing my first internal until my next appt. which is next Thursday.
I could be walking around dilated for all I know 
I guess every doctor is different.

The first thing your doc needs to do is hire assistants who have a clue.

Re: Just got back from my 36 week appt
You've started! Thats exciting! I'm kind of at the same point.
I was 1cm at my 36 week and partially effaced also. At 37 weeks I was still 1 cm but further effaced. I'm now 38 weeks but my appt isn't until tomorrow. I think she is further down based on all the pressure I feel so I hope I'm further along.
From what I've heard though this can last for a few more weeks. I hope thats not the case!!!

I hope I don't get flamed for this since it's not "medically necessary" but we discussed how well my first induction went (DD was 8 days late), how i really wanted her to deliver my DS and the ability to set up care for DD since I have no family locally.
It's only 2 days early and she said she would only do it if I was dialating/effacing on my own first. Which seems that I am - she doesn't think I'll make it to the 5th so it probably doesn't matter.
Good luck tomorrow

With my first my OB (no longer my OB) didn't do my first internal until some time between my 37 and 38th week. I didn't start dialating (fingertip dialated) until my 39th week. I was induced at 41+ weeks at 1.5 cm.
My current OB did it early because I've been having a lot of contractions. I don't know if she would have done it otherwise.

Oh okay, I understand. That makes sense. I was going to say, wow my OB is just a tad bit behind!
Well good luck to you!! Maybe we'll deliver on the same day

I'm so ready physically but mentally I'm NOT. I'm having guilty feelings about taking attention away from Hannah and not sure I'm ready for that newborn stage again. But I guess it's too late now huh????

I 100% feel the same way! I am so sad looking at Ava at the thought of her not getting all of my attention or being jealous. . So much that I am in denial at how fast this pregnancy is going - not mentally there yet!
Physically...I can't believe how big and exhausted I feel this time. I don't remember feeling this way the first time at this point...!!!

I feel the same way! I'm just over 38 weeks, and ready to not be pregnant anymore, but not ready for the baby to be here! Ella's still my baby!
