So angry and frustrated right now. I’ve had intense pains down there and I figured “Hey, maybe that means I’m dilating at least a little bit” and looking on the positive side. However today at my 36 week appointment she told me I’m completely closed shut. I was so frustrated and upset. Anyone else in the same boat? Then after finding that out my family is all telling me things like “You probably won’t dilate” and “You’re going to end up having a C-section” and that ticks me off more. They don’t get to determine what my body is going to do.
