3rd time mommies

Frankie

Did you find with your second pregnancy that you dilated faster or about the same as your first?

With my first I was 3cm dilated at 37 weeks and went into labor 15 days later.

Now I’m 36 weeks with my second and dilated to 3cm.

I am having tremendous amounts of pressure today and can’t even hold my legs together because of the pelvic pain. I don’t want to go into labor yet but my gut is telling me I’m probably not going to have much longer?

EDIT UPDATE:

Ended up being in false labor. Had to go into labor and delivery due to the painful contractions every 2-4 minutes. I was thankfully sent home because I was not dilating further. Contractions lasted a good 12 hours. They believe my doctor checking my cervix that morning caused it.
