38 weeks and 5 days hindi pa rin nkaraos. Close cervix pa rin.. Anung pweding gawin mga mi??

Ay mama, napakastressful yan talaga! Honestly, sa ganitong situation kailangan mo talaga ng clear talk with your OB kasi kung close pa rin ang cervix at overdue na, may options kayo, either i-induce agad or mag-monitor ng mabuti while waiting. Some mums I know were told "anumang araw na" at nag-expect lang, tapos biglang nag-go overdue ng isang linggo pa before they finally induced, which honestly made the whole thing mas matagal at mas stressful. In the meantime, some things na commonly sinasabi, walking, pineapple, dates, spicy food, talagang hit or miss, pero walang harm sa pag-try habang aktibo ka pa. The thing is, kung ang cervix mo talaga ay super closed, walang siguro na mag-trigger ng natural labor kahit kailan, kaya ang pinaka-importante talaga ay makausap mo ng detailed ang doctor mo about timeline at when induction makes sense. Sending you all the strength, mama, you're so close na!
