1cm, station -1, 60% effaced... Woohoo! Could be like this for weeks... Last week 0cm, station -2, 50% effaced.
Tried to talk to my OB today about "non-directed pushing" during labor... not what I hoped... There is a reason I totally try to stay home as long as possible. I tried from the time AV was born to talk AL into a homebirth for the next one... Just too scary for him. My OB said that the hold your breath and puch method is the perfered method... blah blah blah... She also said that this method had nothing to do with my freak hypertension during the actual pushing which led to pre-eclampsia which led to me on MAG after AV arrived... I am not convinced... Don't get me wrong, I love my OB just not the common methods that OB's are following.
