Posterior baby – what does that mean? [pitocin] [cervix]

I am 39 weeks and go into the hospital on Sunday for the ripe cervix gel and pitocin will be given on Monday. I went to the doctor today for my weekly visit and she made the comment that the baby was posterior. I asked what that meant, but she was distracted answering a question I asked and I did not even think about until I left. What does this mean? Does the baby have to turn on or is that the position they should be?

Is it possible I feel baby's head! [cervix] [labour]

I am currently 36 weeks. I left the baby at 34 weeks, I decided internally to see if I could feel the babys head, so my fingers all wondered about the round head, and when the baby kicks the head then moves down up, so it should be the head, does that mean I am close to labor that I can feel babys head? People say make sure you are not the cervix hit or break your waters etc, but Ive read that the cervix is located at the back of the head and come around the front of the head of the baby once in

Update: pee or amniotic fluid? Now I have an interval workout Growth E / S [great news] [cervix]

Well I went in and they checked my cervix (ouch) and had me coughing and nothing came out and I was tight. That was the big news. The RN was so nice and didnt have paitients planned for a while, so we listened to the h / b, it sounded great! Then she asked if I wanted to see him. Simple answer: D He moved his heart beat and his back was so developed! She took the photo and said she needed a doc everything ok. I asked if there was a problem and she said she didnt see a problem. She came back and

12 weeks and bleeding [cervix] [cramps]

Hello everyone,

I am now 12 weeks and was just starting to feel more confident that I would not fail. This took about one day. Yesterday at work, I felt a few little cramps, not painful or anything. When I got home, I went to the bathroom to find what looked like a lot of brown blood. Of course, I freaked out went to my docs, where it was about 10 minutes before they found the heartbeat. She checked my cervix and said it was closed, which was good but could not explain the bleeding.

Why am I so worried about this? [risk factors] [cervix]

I have no idea why this bothers me so much, but Im always afraid my water will break. My water broke with my first, but it broke at 37 weeks. It was not that I had gone sooner or whatever. Im 26 weeks now, and that is my fear for months now. I talked to my dr about it last week and they checked my cervix, which was closed, and tested for amniotic fluid to my mind at ease. She said I have no risk or something similar. So she said just to try and stop worrying about it (not too easy to pretend). M

My baby is too late! Did any of you do a great past your due date? [nonstress test] [cervix]

Hi – I was down to 4 / 20 and my little boy still refuses to come. I had an appointment Monday and the doctor said I was only 1cm. dilated and my cervix was still a bit long. Im going for a nonstress test on Monday and Friday I have an echo to the fluid surrounding a babys level of control. I hope and pray that he was born before I had one of these tests – just because I hate reading about them, esp. where they say the chances considerably stillborn after a week and a half weeks to increase afte
