haha yeah i don't think it was her whole hand, but most of it! it is very uncomfortable, for some people it is very painful, but i'm the same way i felt crampy more than anything

Quoting [mshell] 5 days to go!:“ haha yeah i don't think it was her whole hand, but most of it! it is very uncomfortable, for some people it is very painful, but i'm the same way i felt crampy more than anything”

Quoting .:a.m.s:.:“ My dr said the only reason she'll induce me is because she's on call this weekend anyways and with my ... [snip!] ... months of ship quals, but he'll be leaving again in sept-nov for the same thing then middle of january for 6 months...fun fun.”

are they doing work ups? I always hated fast cruises. they confused the kids more than the deployment.

they use 2 fingers and they do a circle around your cervix. It didnt really hurt me all that be, it was just uncomfortable. But if it does work, you start your labor process within a few hours.

Quoting Navy mommy:“ are they doing work ups? I always hated fast cruises. they confused the kids more than the deployment.”

They were...they just pulled in last night!! YAY!!! But yes, I hate fast cruises and hate deployments even more. All in the life of a navy wife though I suppose

some women say it doesnt hurt.. but mine hurt alot maybe due to the fact i was having contractions while she was doing it.

Well, just a little update...

I went in today and of course I'm not dialating at all, and I didn't end up getting them stripped. The check for dialation hurt enough.

I did however get to schedule for an induction!!!! I'll be going in on Thursday night!!!! YAY!!!

Yay! he's home!! With having older kids, i think the fast cruises are harder beause they keep coming and going. Yes I hate the deployment, but when they're gone they are gone. like i said before it just really confuses them.
