Almost 37 weeks 😩💓 doctor says my cervix is soft and thinning up. Anyway to help the cervix soften up more 🥹 I just now started drinking raspberry leaf tea. Heard it’s good for the last few weeks of pregnancy?

Thinning of the cervix: the way is clear for baby!
The cervix plays a vital role during your pregnancy. When it is fully open, birth is imminent!
- Your cervix closes to keep the fetus safe until the 9th month, and only as you approach delivery does it begin to dilate.
- If it opens prematurely, the doctor will put you on rest to stop the process.
- On the big day, with the contractions and the pressure of the baby's head, the thinning of the cervix progresses gradually until the cervix finally reaches an opening of 10 cm.
- Only then will you be able to start pushing!

Hello, I’m 3 cm dilated and my cervix is thinning but I went to the bathroom and saw a wet spot on my underwear. They said if I was started leaking then to head to the hospital but I’m not sure if that’s what it is… I need help.

Dr's appt today for the twins.. My cervix has thinned pretty early down to 2.3 cm so they put me on progesterone.. I've never taken it, any of you taken it? And any twin moms experience thinning this much? I'm so worried I'm going to have them too early. Also they are 3 pounds each so that's at least a silver lining!!

This girl done tricked us into thinking she’s about too come 😐 now we stuck over night at this hospital even tho I’m not having ANY contractions but my cervix is thinning (about 50% thinned they said)
Chelsey
Why are you stuck there if labor stopped? I was 1CM and 50 percent effaced like 3 weeks ago. I am very thin as of 2 weeks ago and still 1CM. My appt is tomorrow and I will let you know what I am

I was having 1 minute apart contractions but they stopped once I got here but they made me stay over night too monitor me because I’m at my towns hospital my original ob and the hospital I plan on going is out of my town (an hour away) and I felt like I couldn’t make it in time so I came over here and since I’m not originally their patient their protocol is too keep patients that are not originally theirs overnight too monitor them..

I'm same way at 37 weeks. Just our bodies need more time. They aren't ready yet! Yes it is Normal. I just met.someone who was 80% effaced and not dilated at all. You really do need the dilation though for baby to come. I'm sure you will get there
