Soooo I'll be 38 weeks on Monday and I'm still not dilating I don't know about being effaced my doctor has t said anything about that she just keeps telling me nothing's changed. I don't know if my baby has dropped because somedays he looks lower than usual but then the next day he looks to be back up. I have had 0 contractions not even Braxton hicks and nothing has really changed except the fact that I pee every 2-3 hours. I'm starting to get really discouraged because a lot of the women on here have been dilated since 36 weeks! I know I want my little bean to stay inside for as long as he needs but I'm becoming impatient and also my hips and body are becoming extremely painful making it difficult for me to get out of bed without a lot of help. I don't know what to do I've been having sex, nipple stimulation and I've walked a little bit but walking is painful currently I've also been trying squats does anyone have any other ideas? I read a bath could help kick start things.
