I had to go to the hospital for a scheduled non stress test this morning. baby had good strong heartbeat and was moving around quite a bit. The nurse showed that for at least the hour that I was there I was registering for regular mild contractions 5 mins apart. they sent to have my cervix checked and i am STILL not dilated AT ALL! …. frustrating! I worked tonight (as a waitress) simply to KEEP ON WALKING hoping it would help progress things along. Is there anything I can do, even though I havent even begun to dilate? I am 100% effaced, and zero station. Help, I want to meet her and I REALLY REALLY dont want to have to be medically induced which I am scheduled to do by thursday if she doesnt arrive before then. please help!
