“Why do I not go into labor?” It’s a question that is often being asked, particularly by women who fear to be induced. So, in this video, Nathalie Kaufmann, Pregnancy & Birth Consultant and TCM Therapist, and Mathias Ritter, Researcher and Science Geek, explain the 6 most common reasons why labor is not starting.
First, they explain why the reason you are 40 weeks pregnant, but have no signs of labor, can be related to your due date. Next, they discuss why your baby can be the reason why you don’t go int labor. Then they explain various reasons why your cervix can be the cause that prevents labor from starting.
Moreover, they discuss the reasons that can inhibit the release of labor hormones in the first place. And they also explain why your contractions can be the cause why labor is not starting (if your contractions have started already).
At the end of the video, they also explain their action plan which they follow help women avoid that they don’t go into labor.

However, we can assure you that we know LOTS of women who went past their due date and eventually went into labor spontaneously! Some earlier, some later! The best advice right now is to try to stay relaxed! Keep in mind that your body is made for this. So your body knows exactly what it is doing! The other thing is: please don't forget that BILLIONS of women have done this before you. If so many other women could do it, you can do it too!! We are sure, everything will be fine and you will soon hold your sweet little baby in your arms!! 🥰🥰 We wish you ALL THE BEST for the upcoming birth, for you and your baby!! ❤️

This video was very informative and reassuring! My second baby was due 5 days ago and I caught a flu day after due date which is very chesty now so I'm on antibiotics. Its winter where I live, flu and colds going around. Having a scan day after tomorrow to check on his health. I actually did have an early dating scan, but your video gives a lot of food for thought, i might have a scar on my cervix because with my first baby she was induced after two days of non progressing contractions where I stayed at 1cm, wasnt sleeping and back was in severe pain too and after the induction she went into a fetal heart distress and I haemorraged but they got her out quickly and she was ok, and then they found my big bleed to be coming from a cervical tear. The upcoming scan will give more peace of mind and in a way i am glad for the delay because I wouldnt have wanted to be in labour on the initial time i got sick and had fever nor risk him catching it.

This video was such a relief to me. I'm currently 38 weeks and 1 day into pregnancy, but I've been having daily Braxton Hicks contractions every 2-6 hours along with pelvic pressure since 36 weeks and have had a lot of mucus discharge but no blood. When my OB checked me at 36.5 weeks, I was 1cm dilated and baby's head was already very low in my pelvis. At 37.5 weeks, I was 2cm dilated. Since that 36th week though, I've been feeling like I'm going to go into labor early at any minute, and it just left me with the increasing pressure that there is something wrong with my body. It's so reassuring to remember that I'm really only entering the period when labor is statistically likely NOW. Also looking back at my 11 week ultrasound, it looks like September 14th is a more realistic due date than the 17th. My baby will come when she is ready. 🙏 I'm also wondering though, which medications could potentially slow labor? Besides my prenatal vitamin, I'm also taking omeprazole daily for heartburn, extra magnesium oxide and calcium for leg cramps, and extra vitamin D3 because I have multiple sclerosis.

@CareAboutLittleOnes Жыл бұрын

Hi there Katie 😊, it's great to hear that our video was a relief to you! 😊 Please be assured that we know many cases like yours: women who observe all those early signs of labor. Everything in their body tells them that they should go into labor any minute now - but it's not happening. By the way, here is one thing that we observe at the clinic: in many many such cases, the trigger that finally helps those women go into labor is a treatment that focuses on relaxation and stress relief. We do this with the help of acupuncture/reflexology. But we are sure that other things could help as well, if they help you relax. That said, if you are only week 38 and are already 2cm dilated, we would not worry at all. From our experience we can tell you that the probability for you to go into labor spontaneously is VERY high (assuming that baby is in a good position for labor). But as you said: your daughter will come when she is ready. By the way: the medications and vitamins that you mentioned should not affect your labor in any way. So, we would not worry about it... We hope this helps! 😊 We wish you ALL THE BEST for the upcoming birth, for you and your baby!! ❤️

@CareAboutLittleOnes Жыл бұрын

Hi there 😊, we totally understand your situation! 😊 In general, the process of a spontaneous start of labor depends on two major factors: your cervix and baby's position. Therefore, we show you lots of things that COULD help bring baby into a better position for labor (to put more pressure on the cervix) and to help your body prepare your cervix for labor. In this video (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/btiVm8Wm1d3Mqo0.html) we explain several tools to induce labor. Moreover, birth ball exercises could help (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/i82ilbKUmcnJko0.html) On top of that, the right sitting position can also support the whole process (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gZulq8mjlb-uj3k.html) We really hope this helps! 😊 We wish you ALL THE BEST for the upcoming birth, for you and your baby!! ❤️

@CareAboutLittleOnes 2 жыл бұрын

Hi there 😊, first of all, thanks SO MUCH for your lovely feedback! 😘😘 We are very happy to hear that your find our videos helpful! Regarding your question: A baby's position is defined by many different things, for example, by the position of your placenta, uterine fibroids (if there are any), your own position, and: your baby's preference 😊. And sometimes, if they have found a good position, it is not uncommon for them to stay in that position for a very long time... We are aware of several cases like yours and in none of those cases, there were any problems. All of them gave birth to perfectly healthy babies. So, if there would have been any reasons to be concerned, your doctor would have probably already told you. But as long as your baby is gaining weight and is active, there is normally no reason to be worried. Also, please note that some women tend to have a "lower hanging" belly throughout their pregnancy and not just when their baby drops. That too is normally nothing to worry about. Of course, if you ARE worried that something is wrong with your baby, it's always good to discuss it with your provider... We hope this helps! 😊 We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! And greeting to NYC (which we LOVE!!!) ❤️

Hello, Love the way you guys explain, thank you for such informative videos. Need a suggestion please, I'm 31 weeks and every thing was very good so far. Had my growth scan yesterday it was found that there was a small TR(tricuspid regurgitation) in the babies heart hich was not found durig anamoly. Doctor say it is trivial and might be vanished when the baby matures much more...but no 100% assurance.. This has got me and my husband very much worried. Could you please give me your opinion on this.

@CareAboutLittleOnes 2 жыл бұрын

Hi there 😊, we know such a diagnosis sounds terrible. However, you should know that fetal TR is actually quite common and not necessarily a reason to worry. It is true that SOMETIMES TR can cause problems later on. However, those cases are very rare. In most cases, it is going to disappear when the baby matures (just as your doctor told you). So at this point, please do not worry too much! Lots of fetuses have the same problem but eventually, they are all perfectly healthy. You can only tell if it is going to be a problem later on. Until then, stay positive! Everything is going to be okay! 😊 We hope this helps! 😊 We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️

Hello guys, you two are too lovely to hear from, i want some suggestions from you, I am 35+5 days this time, but from 33 weeks onward i am feeling pressure on my lesser pelvis, it's very painful for me to lay down on a side way, even if i take turn a degree it is so painful that i then prefer only to lay on my back which I know now from your video that's not a good position for this time. I'm in a situation now that i got scared whenever it's time for bed it takes me more than 5 minutes to get up with severe pain in my pelvis and lower abdominal region, what should I do

@CareAboutLittleOnes Жыл бұрын

Hi there 😊, we are very sorry to hear that! We know how much discomfort those last few weeks can cause a pregnancy for some women... So, first of all: it is vey difficult to say WHY you experience this pain because there can be so many reasons: Your baby's position, the shape of your pelvis, the size of your baby or a combination of those. Based on the symptoms that you describe, it could also be a symphysis pubis dysfunction (SPD). So, it's always a good idea to have a chat with your provider too so that they can make a proper diagnosis. But here is the good news: you CAN lie (and sleep) on your back too, as long as you make sure that your back is reclined (ideally 45 degrees, but even 35 degrees is possible). Because when you are in a reclined position, gravity is pulling your baby downwards as well. In other words: your baby's weight does not entirely rest on your vena cava... And then, if your doctor tells you that it is in fact pelvic pain, then there are also some exercises that could help. We explain them in this video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/idd5oaqo1NuZpmQ.html We really hope this helps! 😊 We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️

With my first one I was told we will do anything to get you at least to 36 weeks because everything seemed like I will give birth earlier… well I ended up induced in 42weeks. With my second I gave birth at home and with the previous experience I was more patient and let the nature do it’s thing and also gave birth at 42weeks. This time I am 40 weeks and although I sometimes really wish for it to just come I know I still have at least two weeks and I am taking everything easily. It is what it is. I guess I will never experience what it is to give birth at 37weeks to a small precious baby. I birth giant babies, strong and healthy and that’s okay too.

Hi there 😊, thanks so much for sharing this with us!! 😊👍 We know that many women panic when they reach their due date but nothing is happening. But the reality is that, on average, a pregnancy lasts between 38 and 42 weeks. Plus, it is also important to note that the EDD is only an estimate. No one can tell you for sure, when you actually conceived... Therefore, some babies will come earlier, others will come later, as your case shows us. And under normal circumstances, there is absolutely nothing wrong with that... The most important thing is that both, baby and mother are doing well after birth... So, it's great that you have the attitude that you have! 😊👍 We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby no 3!! ❤️

@CareAboutLittleOnes 2 жыл бұрын

Hi there 😊, first of all, thanks a lot for your feedback - we are very happy to hear that you find our videos helpful! 😘 As for your question: It's difficult to say for us if you are in labor or not: backache and menstruation-like pain can certainly mean that you are in labor because every woman experiences labor in a different way. It could be pre-labor, it could also be early labor. It could be "drop contractions" which last 2-3 days and make your baby drop in your pelvis. But it could also just be false alarm. So, what you could do is take a warm bath (20min tops) and see if the pain improves. If it does, it is probably not labor. At the same time, we would also talk with your midwife. Week 36 is still a bit early. They might tell you to stay in bed - depending on your pregnancy case. We hope this helps! 😊 We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️

Today I'm 40 weeks and 4 days and contractions have reduced to be random 20 mins or more apart... Still no sign of going into actual labor Baby is head down since 36-37 weeks Any suggestions?

We did post many videos on our channel on how to support the process of labor induction, for example, this one: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/btiVm8Wm1d3Mqo0.html However, please keep in mind that sometimes, when it's an up and down in terms of contractions, there can be good reasons for this. For example: it could be that your baby is trying to find a better position for labor.

I am 38 weeks and 1 day with my first child. I have had baby in a head down position, with its face towards my back since week 35. I believe it has been in an optimal position for a while! So since week 35 I have also had ongoing period cramps, pelvic pain (lightening pain and pressure), and last night I finally felt baby descend as the kicks are lower and my rib area feels softer (the uterus is now sitting more above my belly button then under my ribs) and the pelvic pain is more intense. I have not been examined for my cervix so I have no idea if I am at all dilated. No mucus plug as of yet and only Braxton hicks' contractions on and off (not really overly painful - just feel like period cramps). I am exercising every day by walking (curb walking, beach walking, stair walking gardening/bending) , doing breathing exercises, eating medjool dates to ripen the cervix, relaxing and resting and pressing on acupressure points. I am literally in a waiting game now! Waiting for the contractions and mucus plug and waters to break. I feel I am so close! Does it sound like it may be soon?

Hi there 😊, we totally understand your situation! We have seen cases like yours many times: women who seem more than ready to go into labor - yet nothing is happening (at least not in terms of labor). We would love to tell you WHY that's the case. However, the reality is that different women take different paths eventually. For example, in many of those cases, women go into labor in a matter of days (sometimes hours). In other cases, it takes another 1, 2 sometimes 3 weeks. Unfortunately, at this stage, scientists still don't know what actually triggers labor eventually. It is currently assumed that it is a hormone that the baby releases as soon as baby's lungs are ready. However, this does not help you, right? 😊 The only thing that DID work in our case for several women is this: an acupuncture treatment that focuses on relaxation. Normally, acupuncture cannot induce labor. However, in cases of women who seem more than ready to go into labor, but it's just not happening, we often observe that relaxation is the key to "let go". Unfortunately, we cannot tell you if this also applies to you too! We can only tell you the only thing that worked for SOME women in such cases. Whatever happens though: please keep this in mind: it's always better to experience everything you experience right now, instead of not observing/feeling anything for the longest time (not even that baby engages). Eventually, you will hold your baby in your arms! And that's all that matters! We wish you ALL THE BEST for the upcoming birth, for you and your baby!! ❤️

Hi there 😊, it really depends on the hospital policy. Many hospitals say that - because they are not equipped for an emergency C-section - they don't do VBACs. Because IF something happens, then they cannot do an emergency C-section. However, please note that VBACs are quite common these days. So, if you want to try having a VBAC, we recommend trying to find another hospital where they ARE equipped for an emergency C-section.... It's really the only thing you can do....

However, if a baby is engaged, it is going to put more pressure on the cervix. As a result, the cervical changes can happen more easily. Therefore, it is (normally) only a matter of time until you go into labor! So lean back, try to relax a little and trust that your body knows what it is doing!

@CareAboutLittleOnes 11 ай бұрын

Hi there 😊, first of all, we would like to point out that nothing that you have mentioned in your message means that you cannot have a normal delivery. 😊 First, your contractions will make your cervix dilate. You don't need your cervix to dilate before labor starts. Second, some babies only engage very late in a pregnancy (some even do it after labor has started. And third, what exactly does your doctor mean by "your pelvis is not wide enough"? Did they measure it? How do they know that it is too narrow? So, if your doctor urges you to have a C-section based on those factors only and if they cannot come up with REAL medical reasons why you need one, we strongly recommend that you get a second opinion by another doctor!! That said, we would not do any labor induction exercises at this point, but focus on baby's engagement. Don't worry! You are "only" 38 weeks pregnant at this point! There is really no need to worry! 😊 We hope this helps! 😊 We wish you ALL THE BEST for the upcoming birth, for you and your baby!! ❤️

@CareAboutLittleOnes Жыл бұрын

Hi there 😊, one cannot really say that it is "better" if it's taking longer when it comes to the weeks 39-42. It very much depends on the pregnancy case. We can only say that for the time BEFORE week 39. In other words: NORMALLY, what WOULD be great is if the baby stayed in there for a full 38 weeks period (i.e. if baby was not being born before week 39) because it gives the lungs more time to mature. An exception is - of course - when there are medical problems with the pregnancy. That said, of course, a baby can also be born earlier without suffering from any long-term problems. It really depends on the situation... We hope this helps! 😊 We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️

Hi there 😘, do you know if your baby is facing your front at this point? We are asking because severe back pain at this stage of your pregnancy CAN be a sign that your baby is facing your front and not your back. And when that's the case, we often observe a prolonged pre-labor phase in which the baby basically tries to find a better position... This does not necessarily have to apply to you though! It's just something we have observed often.... In any case, we wish you ALL THE BEST for the upcoming birth, for you and your baby!! ❤️

Feeling frustrated, tired and angry. Had my first 11 years ago at 37+6 weeks precipitous labour in less than 2hrs and a healthy 2600g baby and still got a few sutures. Now am 40+2 no signs of baby coming but last 3 nights I have cramping and back ache almost all night but gone completely during the day. I feel my body has failed me, or the baby is lazy and I hate to blame it for that as I have been physically active and doing everything to induce labour nothing works. Am crying in anger and fear of a long labour, and delivering a huge baby 😢😢

Hi there 😊, poor you! We totally get your frustration at this point! 😊 Please keep in mind though that your last delivery was 11 years ago. In such cases, it is like your body has to "start all over"... But it's neither that your body fails you nor that your baby is lazy. Your baby WILL come when it's your time! So, worry no more!

Hi there 😘, please understand that - as much as we would love to - but it is impossible for us to tell you what you should do in your situation. Not only are we legally not allowed to do that. Also, we don't know anything about your case. We can only tell you this: Normally, inductions are being done when there are medical reasons, for example, when the placenta can no longer sufficiently provide for the baby. A grade 3 placenta, for example, is not necessarily a problem for the baby because placentas do age over time. The only question is: does it have an effect on the baby, which is something they have to find out via tests, such as ultrasound exams. Therefore, we recommend that you first, talk with your doctor so that they can tell you in detail based on which arguments they propose an induction. And second, if you don't want an induction, we encourage you to get a second opinion by another doctor! It's always good to have a second opinion to see if they too would recommend an induction and if so, based on which reasons. Again, we are sorry that we cannot be a better help here. But this is what we would do.... We wish you ALL THE BEST for the upcoming birth, for you and your baby!! ❤️

@CareAboutLittleOnes 9 ай бұрын

Hi there 😘, normally, an ultrasound exam that is done in or before week 12 produces the most reliable EDD. So, if you had an exam that early and if they gave you an EDD back then, it is NORMALLY best to go with that one. The fact that your baby is so small can also be a sign that October is more likely.. Please remember that the lmp approach is based on very strong assumptions (particularly in regards to the length of your cycle). What does your doctor recommend?

Hii…! I have a long comment to write hope you got time for it 😅 My last period was on 20 october but it wasn’t a normal period was very light and only for 3 days, I thought it was the implantation bleeding. I went to the doctor at week 5 after that and after the ultrasound she told me baby is bigger than 5 weeks it shows is 7 so she said the conception of the baby took place before my period. So she changed the date from 20th october to 13th october. I am currently 40 weeks and 6 days and tomorrow she called me to the hospital to induce my labour for I enter in week 41. My question is that what if the baby is actually 40 weeks tomorrow and not 41, will inducing the labour be a problem? And come with complications? I am scared that i get it induced. I’m dilated 2 cm now on my second pregnancy and my mucus plug fell since monday but I don’t get real contractions yet, just Braxton hicks, yesterday i went for a check and the Midwife told me the baby is still high in my pelvis. The baby feels like it just won’t get out till tomorrow…

Hi there 😊, normally, when they tell you the EDD based on an ultrasound exam in or before week 12, it is quite reliable (at least as reliable as an EDD can be). But basically, even if you are actually 40 weeks tomorrow and not 41 weeks, in how far this will have an effect on the induction process is unknown... But please don't be too scared! If there are good reasons to induce you, rest assured they do it hundreds of times every single day. So, please do not worry at all! We are sure everything will be fine!

Is there any chance to engage & cervix opening still?

@CareAboutLittleOnes Жыл бұрын

Hi there 😘, please understand that we cannot make any specific suggestions as to what you should do or not because this is something that only a doctor can do who is familiar with your particular case. We can only tell you - in general - what we observe, which we are happy to do: First of all, on average, a pregnancy lasts between 38 and 42 weeks. Everything within that range is considered "normal" (as long as there are no medical reasons why that baby has to come out fast). Second, not every baby engages in the pelvis BEFOR labor starts. The same applies to dilation: not every woman dilates before labor starts! Sometimes, these things only happen once labor has started. Moreover, when it comes to engagement, it could also happen hours before labor starts. Of course, it is true that a normal vaginal delivery is more likely, if baby is engaged and if you have already started to dilate a bit. However, these things could easily happen within one week time (OR, as we already mentioned, they could happen AFTER labor starts). The other thing is: why go straight for a C-section? Why not try an induction first, if it is SO important that that baby comes out so fast? And finally, if your doctor tells you that she "does not take any responsibilities" if something happens, it would be great to know: what - in her opinion - is supposed to happen exactly within the next week? Because of that, we strongly recommend that you get a second opinion from another obstetrician! However, please make sure that you go to someone who has a good track record of helping women with a normal delivery. Because unfortunately, some doctors are in this game for the money - and not for the patient's best interest... We really hope this helps! 😊 We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️

I read it is prodromal labor and prepares the body for the real labor.

Hi there 😊, first of all, CONGRATULATIONS on your newborn from the 2 of us!!! 🥳🥳🥳 It is always such as relief to hear that another healthy baby was born - even if it's via C-section... Regarding your question: It's difficult to answer because there can potentially be SO many factors. And unfortunately, most of them are not under your control. So, here are the things that ARE under your control: - Smoking and drinking as well as drug abuse - being underweight - poor nutrition during your pregnancy Unfortunately, every other reason is not controllable: - vaginal bleeding can be the cause of a preterm rupture of membranes (preterm PROM) - a short cervical length - placental abruption (when your placenta detaches from the uterine wall) - problems with the umbilical cord - uterine fibroids - inflammation of the uterus - and more the likes... So, as you can see: if you don't drink and smoke and are not underweight and eat well, that's really all you can do. However, please note that just because it has happened in the last pregnancy does not mean it will happen again... Just stay positive! 😊 We hope this helps! 😊 We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️

@CareAboutLittleOnes Жыл бұрын

Hi there 😊, there is a tendency that if a baby was born "post-term", that the next pregnancy will be a post-term pregnancy too. HOWEVER: post-term means delivering the baby in week 42 or later. Delivering a baby in week 40 is not post-term. It is "right in time". Only some 2% of babies are born on the expected due date. About 83.5% of babies are born sometime between week 37+0 and week 40+6. Therefore, there is no need to worry! It's okay if baby is born after your due date, unless there are medical problems of course! And you don't necessarily have to feel any contractions in week 39 already. In second pregnancies, things often go much faster once they start..... We hope this helps! 😊 We wish you ALL THE BEST for the upcoming birth, for you and your baby!! ❤️

@CareAboutLittleOnes 2 жыл бұрын

Hi there 😊, it's very difficult for us to tell you what is the best decision to make because it very much depends on your pregnancy case - which only your doctors know. First of all, please note that on average, a pregnancy lasts between 38 and 42 weeks. Everything within that range is totally normal. So, please do not be disappointed that you have not had any contractions yet. After all, you are "only" 37 weeks pregnant.... Second, please note that it is not possible to correctly determine baby's weight in the womb. Even if they tell you 3.4kg, it is not clear if baby does indeed have 3.4 kg. Third, women are well able to deliver larger babies. We know lots of women who delivered 4kg babies - without any complications... That said, if there are medical problems, an induction may be inevitable. So, that's something you'd have to discuss with your doctor. But we do hope that the information that we posted here helps you at least a little in making a decision together with your provider! We hope this helps! 😊 We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️

Hi there 😊, as mentioned in this video, it depends a bit on the exact reason why your labor is not starting in the first place. So, we hope that this video helped you get at least some ideas. And of course, the videos that we mention in the description of this video are supposed to help you! That said, there are several things which have helped other women in similar situations to get contractions started. 1. Nipple stimulation (just keep in mind that it may not be done with a few minutes per day) 2. Reflexology (same as nipple stimulation: it may not be done with a few minutes per day only) 3. Acupuncture (acupuncture itself cannot induce labor; however, it can help in cases when a woman cannot go into labor because of high stress levels. So if you are really stressed, acupuncture could help) 4. Exercises on a birthing ball Of course, there is also Castor oil. However, personally, we always treat Castor oil as last resort simply because of the side effects. Also, you can never be sure if it is going to work... Still, it CAN be super effective for labor induction. Just discuss with your doctor first, if Castor oil is the right tool in your particular case... We talk more about these tools and also how to apply them in these 2 videos: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/btiVm8Wm1d3Mqo0.html (reflexology, nipple stimulation, Castor oil) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/i82ilbKUmcnJko0.html (birth ball exercises) And then of course, there is also relaxation: sometimes, the start of labor takes longer because stress hormones interfere with labor hormones. This can be a particular problem if fear is a topic (f.e. when a woman is afraid of labor). Anger could also be a reason. In that case, it can help to work on those stress levels, f.e. with the help of a massage treatment, mediation, yoga, whatever relaxes you. OR if it is indeed anger or fear, a therapist might help (or just talking with a friend). We hope this helps! 😊 We wish you ALL THE BEST for the upcoming birth, for you and your baby!! ❤️

Hlo..i am currently 39weeks and 5 days pregnant .my due date is 14september but labour pain is not starting till now.i am worried.i don't want cesarean..

Hi there 😘, unfortunately, not all women go into labor before or on their due date. Maybe, it's just too early for you? Besides: just because you don't go into labor does not mean you need a C-section. There is also the option of an induction if there are medical reasons to have one... We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️

39w+ 6d… this is my third pregnancy and they’ve told me I’m 3.5cm and 70% effaced and still nothing happening

Hi there 😘, please note that on average, a pregnancy lasts between 38 and 42 weeks. So, it may still be too early for your body. Also, it is important to note that when exactly you will go into labor is not only a matter of your cervix, but also of the position of your baby as well as your hormones, particularly, if you are going through a particularly stressful period... That said, in general, several things could help induce labor: In this video (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/btiVm8Wm1d3Mqo0.html) we explain several tools to induce labor. Moreover, birth ball exercises could help (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/i82ilbKUmcnJko0.html) On top of that, the right sitting position can also support the whole process (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gZulq8mjlb-uj3k.html) That said, we would not worry too much! Your body is clearly preparing for labor. Moreover, it is your third baby. In such cases, there is normally no reason to worry that you don't go into labor... We really hope this helps! 😊 We wish you ALL THE BEST for the upcoming birth, for you and your baby!! ❤️

Hi there 😊, please note that on average, a pregnancy lasts between 38 and 42 weeks. Therefore, it may still be too early for your body... It very much depends on your cervix and the position of your baby.

Hi, i am 38 weeks pregnant, my doc wrote os closed and v ...3 on my report. Can you tell what does that mean?

@CareAboutLittleOnes Жыл бұрын

Hi there 🤨, the "os" is basically just the opening of the cervix. However, we are not quite sure what v...3 is supposed to mean? 🤨 We recommend that you talk with your doctor again! We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️

@@CareAboutLittleOnes okay, thank you for replying. You people are doing great work. Loved all your content and have watched almost all of your videos from sleeping posture to how to deal with the baby. Can you please tell me Is it normal to have os closed in 38 weeks pregnancy? Moreover, there is one more thing if you can take time to answer. Sometimes i feel my baby's head is engaged like the urge to pee and problem in walking. But sometimes i feel totally fine. Especially after a sleep. Can't understand what's going on. Can you please guide?

@@fh3657 Hi there! 😊 You are MOST WELCOME! We are happy that you find our content helpful! 😊 Regarding your questions: It is totally normal for the os to be closed at this point. Right now, what's most important is that your cervix is getting soft. Anything else is just a plus. Sometimes, women go into labor even though they are 0 dilated and they still have a normal delivery. It's different from woman to woman... ;-) Regarding engagement: in how far you feel your baby very much depends on your position and your movements, as well as baby's position. Therefore, it can happen that you sometimes feel the baby, in other times you don't. There is a video that explains the signs of engagement: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b6-IfJikrJPIZ6s.html Maybe you find it helpful? 😊
