39+4, 3-4cm dilated and 100% effaced

Melissa

I was supposed to be induced today due to this being an <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a> pregnancy and me being “advanced maternal age” but they were so backed up so now it’s been pushed to tomorrow (hopefully). My doctor did squeeze me in to do another membrane sweep and stretch and got me to 3-4cm dilated. I have been 100% effaced for about 3 weeks now. This is my second baby. I’m reallllly hoping he comes on his own but I have a feeling I’ll be waiting around all day tomorrow again for my induction time. Ugh! I’m 40 weeks in 3 days… how am I still pregnant?!!
