I’m so scared as a FTM to be included and get an epidural (had to learn how to walk again twice after scoliosis spinal surgeries) but excited to finally meet after 39 weeks 5 days! His due date is Friday but his heartbeat has spiked up and dropped very low within the past week on and off and hasn’t moved much lately. They sent me downstairs after my appointment at 9:15 this morning and got me in a room. Still at 2cm since last week and contracting.

Felt like he would never come out.. but his heartbeat is stable and ultrasound is okay for now! Please keep us in prayers and good thoughts! I’m so proud of all of the soon to be moms and women who are already moms in this group for being strong, patient, and helping each other. I’m young and didn’t realize until meeting other pregnant women or mom how strong you guys are on a deeper level❤️ Much love to you and good mamas! 🌹✨💙

Update: they sent me home. Baby is being stubborn still at 2cm going to try and break water naturally and go past due date instead was doctors suggestions plus she said inducing is painful
