[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]4 cm - oh.my.goodness! What an exercise in patience! I get excited when I feel the rare Braxton Hicks. I can't imagine hanging out at 4 cm for so long. You are a trooper!

Elle - glad you are off and enjoying the beautiful day. I just took a walk - it was so nice. But, all it seemed to accomplish was giving my baby hiccups. It sounds like your baby realizes the importance of first impressions as he selects carefully selects the right outfit ;) Hopefully, he will make his selection soon and come on out to meet ya!

Nobody can believe i am still pregnant.  I have definitely defied all odds.  Especially since I contract like crazy and have for a long time.  Although it has been a test of patience, I try to keep it all in perspective.  After a devastating 2nd tri loss 4 years ago (water broke with twins @ 19 weeks), all I have prayed for over the years and during this pregnancy is for me to be able to make it long enough thru a pregnancy to give the baby a good chance of surviving and thriving.  So not only have I done that but I have far exceeded my doctors' and my expectations.  I got my cerclage out over 2 weeks ago and dilated to 4 in no time flat.  But here I still sit over 2 weeks later.  Although I myself am ready, this baby isn't, so as long as he/she is still doing ok in there, my doctor said we are leaving things alone until Monday.  Since I did ivf and am 36, he feels like Monday (39 weeks), is a good, safe limit.  I agree.

Hang in there!  I have walked and walked and walked til I am blue in the face.  This baby isn't budging even with my dilated cervix!!!!! [/quote]
