Guys I found out the most helpful bit of information lol

I mentioned to my doctor the other day at my growth scan that the past two days I’d been having really intense period-like pain

She was like “Oh, usually this far along it means you’re dilating. Wanna check?”

YAS BITCH YAS I wanted to check, was that a question?! Lol

So she checks and I’m at a one! Not much, but it’s progress! I’d previously been closed with every check, so she was totally right that’s what those pains meant 😊
