2cm dilated

[Sandra800]

Hi ladies, so yesterday I had my bloody show. Went to the hospital they checked me over and said I was 2cm dilated and my cervix’s was really thin. They had me on a monitor and could see I was getting contractions quite regularly and they were getting stronger. The docter came to examine me and said my waters hadn’t broken yet I’m a good 2cm dilated and my baby is pretty low. They have sent me home and told me to come back when the contractions are so strong that I carnt handle them. What can I do to dilate or even to help me break my waters?

You need to boost oxytocin. So any activities that make you feel safe and happy.
Walking if you can manage it.
Keep eating and drinking to keep your energy up.
Good luck xxx

Agree with PP oxytocin is really important.
My waters went a couple of days after my show, and that day I had walked loads and used a birthing ball too.
Good luck!
