I had to go into the doctor today for a possible blood clot in my leg. I happened to mention how it seemed weird to me that the baby dropped down last week. Results... No blood clot, but I'm starting to dilate. We have a rough road ahead of us. No idea what to expect at this point.

	Comment from Summer0120 » Posted Oct. 28, 2015 4:17pm They will not slow anything down unless it looks like my contractions are strong enough to keep dilating me. If I get past 1 centimeter in a small amount of time, they will hospitalize me like they did with the first and put me on magnesium and try to stop the contractions until I'm 34 weeks if possible.

	Comment from Summer0120 » Posted Oct. 28, 2015 10:05am She said I'm only partially dilated. So I'm guessing that means less than a full centimeter. Problem is the contractions are getting more frequent and stronger every day, so that's why they are concerned. I would not be surprised if my cervix has changed already by the time I go in for my appointment Friday morning.

	Comment from HzlGreenEyes » Posted Oct. 28, 2015 8:56am Yikes. Thankfully no blood clots, and I am hoping she stays in there for a while. How many centimeters dilated are you? I only ask cause I dilated to 2 cm when my 1st dropped at around 30 weeks, but he stayed in until the day before his EDD
