Feeling discouraged 😣

Jen

Due date is Feb 9th, FTM. Last week at my 37 week check I was 1.5 cm dilated and 30% effaced. Since then I have been bouncing on an exercise ball, cleaning the house, doing laundry, walking, you name it. Been getting enlightening with the shooting pains very often the past couple days. I was getting so excited knowing that baby is making her way down. I’m 38 +4 today and im still 1.5 cm and 50% effaced. I was like are you kidding me?! And my dr scheduled an induction date for me just in case I go past my due date and its for the 15th of February. Like seriously?! Thats so long! I feel so down and feel like I’m going to be pregnant forever and nothing is going to happen on its own 😞😞 ughh
