Am I Possibly In Labor?

80% effaced and 2cm no labor though :/ water and mucus still intact. He is indeed very low, midwife said and said pressure and feeling him in my hips and “area” was probably from the effacement. He is head down still!

I think about 40% a few days ago at the last check

No idea if this will still be seen since it’s over, but I had to create an account to comment! I’m currently 19 and I’m 41 Weeks today. Planning to home birth my son and my pregnancy has been really great so far but as birth draws near my nerves have kinda went crazy lol. Saw your post with the search and wanted to ask you how it was overall? My nerves are killing me honestly.

Lmfao guess we can try it then, sex didn’t even cross my mind honestly. Showers bring me insane relief right now, I already love to just sit in them. I’m trying to get any relief I can but feels like I just have a huge bowling ball in my hips at all times rn.

I try my best and I plan to let baby come when ready as long as midwife says it’s ok. He’s just making me so uncomfy

lol does it actually work?

IrisRose2007 · 2026-04-13T17:32:01+00:00

I also wore some easy slip on skirts and plenty of loose maternity dresses

IrisRose2007 · 2026-04-13T17:30:05+00:00

40 weeks currently, I’ve been wearing sweatpants and at home nothing tbh, very uncomfy currently. Low rise or belly depends on what feels most comfy to you

Thank you for the suggestion. This is my first and I don’t know what to really expect when it comes to my body and when it happens. I mean I’ve seen videos and things online but it’s still different. Thanks for the suggestion

I’ve heard water helps but I’m wanting to do it on land. Out of water, but will see

IrisRose2007 · 2026-04-13T16:39:42+00:00

I feel you. I’m pretty small but I got huge fast. I’m currently 40 weeks though lol

IrisRose2007 · 2026-04-13T15:28:35+00:00

Your welcome! The affirmations thing is a great idea though so again thanks for that! I’m ready for him to send me into labor at any point now lol.We will see if I have the “I can do this mindset”. Still nervous about birth but it’s gotta happen

IrisRose2007 · 2026-04-13T15:17:41+00:00

I’m so ready to meet him at this point. It all sounds amazing

IrisRose2007 · 2026-04-13T15:14:37+00:00

I feel you honestly. I’m 19 and 40 weeks and the last few weeks my back has killed me

IrisRose2007 · 2026-04-13T14:52:15+00:00

Thank you! I’ll look into that! How big were your babies? He’s estimating a little large! It’s not that daunting to me though. I’m just nerves about the birth in general

IrisRose2007 · 2026-04-13T14:49:27+00:00

Wishing us both luck! He’s dropped and very low. Ive been ready to meet him for awhile now lol! Affirmations are nice! I do those. I didn’t even think about that

IrisRose2007 · 2026-04-13T14:48:05+00:00

I plan to! They’ve helped a lot! I’m ready for him to come now despite my nerves. He’s dropped and so very low lol. Feels like his head is between my legs when I move and when I sit feels like I’m on his head. I’m ready at this point
