No progress
I am 38 weeks ftm, I started getting cervical checks at 36 weeks. I have been dilated a fingertip and 60% effaced at my 36, 37, and 38 week appointments. Baby isn't dropping or engaging either. I have been walking, having sex, and sitting on a yoga ball almost every day. Due to family history and medical reasons, doctor is talking about scheduling a c-section on my due date. She is concerned that if we go with an induction or even if I go into labor on my own I will still end up having a c-section because baby is so high. The funny thing is that I'm not super upset about the c-section, what I'm most upset about (and I know how selfish this sounds) is that my husband will be the first to hold her after she's born instead of me. I just always imagined that moment of her coming out and being put right on my chest and with a c-section, I won't get that experience. We have 2 weeks until my due date so there's time for things to change, I just don't have high hopes. I just want her here and healthy.
