That's something I haven't quite figured out, dilation... do they just stick a set of calipers up there? Who get's the job to design this sort of thing? "Hmm, we need something to measure a woman's dilation so we can better estimate due time..."
Yeah... its called, fingers.
^this. Damn doctor got to feel my babies head before I did. lol
Not yet. Getting very impatient here. False labor yesterday, which was the due date. And our anniversary is tomorrow. I swear I didn't plan this.
So, time will tell. She has been walking every day, which is supposed to help, but isn't working out that well so far.
^^Nearly choked on my OJ. LOL.
At least you'll never forget your anniversary? :coolman: I've heard some other "methods" work for inducing, but if he's that close, wouldn't want to risk any brain damage. heh
Well, doing the conversion, 1.5cm on friday is just over 1/2 inch. So basically about width of a finger, depending obviously. lol 10cm, which my understanding is fully dilated is about 4". So I am sure doctors can figure out estimates based on this.
That is as far as I go medically. if she gets an epidural, I sure as hell won't be watching.
LOL, they won't let you watch anyway. I wanted to watch Marisa get hers, but they wouldn't let me even look her direction. Apparently more than a few people have passed out watching the process. That kind of stuff doesn't bother me though, so I was disappointed I couldn't watch.
Have her do jumping jacks...lol.

^^ this...
I tried watching as well... they told me I couldn't and only the doctor was standing behind her. I would also attribute this to lawsuits, another reason they no longer let you film the birth.
What do you mean they wont let you watch? I watched Candace get both of hers. Put Candaces head in my stomach and watched over her back as they did it all. They never even attempted to make me turn away.
:shrug:
I really regret opening this thread again lol.
