About Roni CNA Expertise I can answer MANY pregnancy questions.
Experience I was an expert in the Ask Jeeves area of pregnacy. (this has since been canceled.
I had a rough pregnacy my self. I had toxmeia and an emergency c/s. My incision had to be re-opened and packed.
I have read about all there is to read on pregnacy and birth. Feel I can be very helpful.
I am also a Certified Nursing Assistant.
Question My due date is tom. 7/17. My son is 22 months old and he was born by c-section. He was born at 39 weeks 6 days. When I was 39 weeks, 1 day, I was dilated to 1 and 50% effaced. The only reason he was c-section, was that he became entangled in his cord after my water broke. Today, I am 39 weeks, 80% effaced and dilated to a 2. My doctor discussed a possible induction, however, suggested against it to avoid possible complications such as a reapeated c-section, my incision rupturing, or even death to myself or the baby. I was very excited at the thought of being induced tom., however, have decided to wait and see what happenes. She said that he is very, very low and surprised that I haven't had him yet. However, I've heard of women being dilated to four and walking around for weeks. Is it more significant to have a thinning cervix or a thinning cervix? Or is one not neccessarily more important than the other? I'm just ready to have this baby and wondering if you see any light at the end of the tunnel and a fast approaching natural delivery or if it could still be weeks? Thanks for your help! Mindy
Answer You will have the baby, I guarantee it! When, I can't guarantee.
I suggest trying everything possible to not have an induction. They are bad, real bad.
Be patient, things happen for a reason. I really can not answer your one question as you asked is it more significant to have a thinning cervix or a thinning cervix.
Good luck to you.
