Cervix dilation symptoms - What does cervical dilation feel like and how to tell if you are dilated
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ก.ย. 2024
- Do you want to find out if and how much you are dilated without a vaginal exam? In this video, Nathalie Kaufmann, Pregnancy and Birth Consultant, and Mathias Ritter, Science Expert, present various ways to find out how it feels like when you are dilated, how to tell if you are dilated and also how much you are dilated. First of all, they present the four most important cervix dilation symptoms, to help you understand how it looks and feels like when your cervix is dilating. Afterwards, they explain two methods in order to help you tell yourself if you are dilated. In fact, these two methods can even give you a rough idea about how much you are dilated. They are called “the Purple Line” and “the Fundus Theory”. While the first approach is based on scientific research (sources see below), the second approach is not scientific at all. However, it is used by many midwives and doulas to help a woman find out if she is dilating and also, how much she is dilated.

Thanks so much for watching this video! 😊 Please keep in mind: the most reliable way to tell if and how much you have dilated is always to have a midwife check your cervix. However, we know that this is not always an option (and certainly not the most pleasant experience). So, we hope that our video will help you at least get a ROUGH idea about if and how much you are dilated!
Hey guys, I just has a successful delivery of my baby boy. 6lbs 8oz. Feeling so blessed
@@jessicaredding5144 Oooooooh, that's so great to hear!! ❤️😊 Thanks SO MUCH for sharing Jessica!! We really appreciate it and we are very excited for you! ❤️
We hope that both, you and your baby are well!!
Enjoy your time with your little angel and don't forget to find some rest too!! 🥰😊😊
Question. Will the dilated cervix always be a circle? My doctor said I was 3cm dilated.
I came home & checked myself & what I found was NOT a perfect circle but more like a flattened oval. Is that normal? So confused.😵💫
@@ashjankins960 Hi there Ash! 😊
The cervix may not be perfectly round, but it IS round. However, the problem is that when you check the cervix yourself, the position that you adopt to do so can change the shape of your cervix. Therefore, it may appear oval shaped from your point of view, when in fact, it is round 😊
We hope this helps!
@@CareAboutLittleOnes YES! Very helpful. Thank you so much! 🙏🤩
Its crazy to me that youtube allows some "music videos" that are so sexualized and inappropriate but yet a scientific/medical video is considered inappropriate!
You are making a really good point! We have never seen it like that! But you are absolutely right!! It does not make any sense...
Welcome to the world, it is a disgusting place, truly
Blame it on the perverts that fuck it up for everyone 🙄🙄

Your videos hv been very helpful to me during this journey. Currently 35weeks pregnant, so tired of heartburn and pelvic groin pain .but happy baby will soon be in my arms. May God see us all through. Keep the good work up
Hi there Teresa 😊,
thanks SO MUCH for your kind feedback!! 😘 It makes us very happy to hear that our videos have been helpful during your pregnancy!! 😊
We can absolutely understand that you are tired of all the heartburn and the pelvic pain. At some point, you just want your body back. But the good news is - as you already said - you are already 35 weeks pregnant!! Just a couple of more weeks to go before you can finally hold that sweet little thing in your arms! 🥰 And then those cumbersome final weeks of your pregnancy will quickly be forgotten!
We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️
I never knew about the purple line and checked, and sure enough, it was there! And I’ve had all the symptoms of dilation that you’ve been talking about! ☺️
Hi there Kathryn 😊,
actually, not many women know about this! In fact, we have met women who even tried to rub it off! 😅
But it is a natural phenomenon that some women experience, although we very much doubt that 70% have it (as they found in the study). At least, that's not what we observe...
Anyways, we wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️
I'm using my husband's account.
As someone without a doctor due to not enough money for insurance or able to pay out of pocket, videos like this are the only advice I'm getting, so I really appreciate these videos. I'm 30 weeks as of this past Sunday. Thank you for what you do! ❤

Does you state have pregnancy Medicaid?
@travie786 Yes it does.
@@anoldranger1575 were you ineligible? Pregnancy Medicaid usually pays for all expenses if I’m not mistaken. Maybe try to apply if you haven’t already. Usually all you need to apply is your ID

As a first time mom, this video is exactly what I needed as a reassurance. Have been going through exactly everything you’ve mentioned, very informative. Currently 38 weeks. Appreciate you guys! 🥺
Hi there Gabriela 😊,
that's very kind of you to say!! Thanks SO MUCH for your lovely feedback!! 😊😘

I can only fit three fingers and my dr said I was only 3cm dilated today
Was watching this and my water just broke 🤦🏽♀️ 4 days befor the EDD, thanks for your videos very informative I hope all goes well…
Your so lucky
Oh WOW!! 😊
Well, that's because sometimes, women are so shocked when they hear our accent, that their water breaks!! 😅😅
Just kidding!
We hope that by now, you are already in labor. It normally happens within 24 hours after the water breaks. Wherever you are right now, we wish you ALL THE BEST for your delivery, for you and your baby!! Everything will go well!! ❤️❤️
this is my third baby and i had never heard of the purple line before, so helpful!
Hi there! 😊
Thanks SO MUCH for commenting! Yes, not many women know about the purple line because not many women develop a purple line. Scientists say that about 75% do, but we can absolutely not confirm that number. In our opinion, the number is much lower...
Anyways, we are happy that you found our video helpful! 😊
We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby! ❤️
Baby number five on the way, and I had not heard of either of these methods. Thank you so much for sharing you’re experience and knowledge. 💕 and after watching your breech video my baby flipped a few days later at 37+ weeks! Thank you so much!
Hi there 😊,
that's fantastic to hear!! 😊 Thanks a lot for your lovely feedback! We are particularly happy to hear that our video helped you turn your little one!
We wish you ALL THE BEST for the upcoming birth, for you and baby no 5!! ❤️
Do you want to be friends with me on tex I'm a girl I'm 38 old I'm in a wheel chair my body hurts me every day so if I ask you too play with your body on tex
Should mention that for non-white women, the “purple line” may be white or gray. The color that shows up depends on your skin tone. Thanks for the great content overall!
Hi there 😊,
yes, you are absolutely right! We should have mentioned that in our video!
Actually, in women with dark skin, the line often appears in a greyish or dark brownish color (similar to la linea nigra that can develop on the stomach when you are pregnant).
That said, personally, we don't believe that 75% of women develop a "purple" line. In our experience, it is considerably less, particularly in women with dark skin (but this is just an observation).
We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️
39 weeks, first time mom, due date is next week, binge watching your videos, I wish I have found them earlier ☺️☺️☺️ thank you for what you guys doing ❤️
Hi there 😊,
thanks SO MUCH for watching our videos and for your super-sweet feedback!! 🥰 It makes us very happy to hear that you like our content!! 😊❤️
We wish you ALL THE BEST for the upcoming delivery, for you and your baby!! Soon, you will be holding that sweet little thing in your arms!! 🥰🥰
Did you gave birth safely ❤️❤️I’m due next weeks hope it goes well❤️
Im 39weeks to be exact tomorrow.im also a first time mom.my cervix still closed.nextweek is my due hopefully tomorrow im going into labor🙏
With my first baby I would feel awful awful pain down there with every contraction. Literally, the only way I could describe it was I felt like my cervix was being pulled open. I called the nurse in and she said “well, you’re definitely fully dilated!” I don’t remember feeling that as much with my second, but I had an epidural so that’s probably the reason.
Hi there Heather 😊,
thanks a lot for sharing your story with us!! Actually, there are many women who describe their experience exactly as you just did: as if their cervix was pulled open.
And yes, in your second pregnancy, it was probably the effect of the epidural. However, it is also worth noting that in second pregnancies, things often feel and behave differently compared to first deliveries... So, the fact that it was your second delivery could have been a reason too that things felt differently...
Again, thanks a lot for sharing! 😊
We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your little ones!! ❤️

You guys are so amazing thank you so much for this video. It brought me so much comfort as I am 38 weeks and 2 days, and I’ve been hurt badly by American doctors, that being said I have had very few prenatal appointments (I’ve had an amazing pregnancy so far) and this gives me confidence and peace knowing I can check at home and be informed. You’re both awesome! So clear and informative with words and explanations! 🤍

I’m 40 weeks and only 1cm dilated, I’m so ready to have my baby.
Hello Brittany! ❤️
We can totally imagine!! At some point, you just want that baby out (and hold that sweet little thing in your arms)! However, please note that only because you may dilate very slowly initially, does not mean that your entire dilation will progress at such a slow speed. It can suddenly go very quickly! So better have that hospital bag prepared 😊
We wish you ALL THE BEST for the upcoming birth, for you and for your delivery! ❤️
I am 37 weeks today, was 1cm dilated at my last appointment and never knew about the purple line. While watching I checked and saw it and my jaw literally dropped!! I’m not sure how long it is but I think that’s such an amazing thing. Our bodies are capable of so much who knew
Hi there Lauren 😊,
thanks SO MUCH for your feedback and thanks a lot for confirming that the line exists! 😊
Many women believe that we are crazy when we talk about the purple line😅. So, it's always good to have some confirmation!
Don't worry too much about the length of the line though! We are still waiting for the results of another scientific study which will hopefully tell us more about the relationship between the length of the line and dilation progress...
In the meantime, we wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby! ❤️
This is so incredible. I didn't know about the Fundus Theory or the Purple Line, and I've been pregnant 9 times! I'm 1.5 weeks away from my due date today. Thank you for an awesome video 😁
Oh wow!! NINE pregnancies?? Kudos to you!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
We have so much respect from this accomplishment! After all, it is not only about the pregnancies. It's also about raising those sweet little ones... 😊❤️ 👍
We are very happy to hear that we were still able to tell you something you did not know!
We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your entire family!! ❤️

Thanks guys I really appreciate you both for all the teachings. After watching your videos I follow as instructed. I was 38 weeks pregnant. I gave birth to a very healthy baby girl on 22/2/2020 thank God I was free from being pregnant. Love you both ❤❤
Hi there 😘,
first of all, our sincere apologies for the late reply! We have had some severe technical issues on our end over the past 4 days which is why we were unable to answer any comments...
Even more important though: CONGRATULATIONS on your baby girl from the 2 of us!!! 🥳🥳🥳 It's always SO great to hear whenever another healthy baby was born and that our content helped you with that!! 😍
We hope that you recover well!!
Enjoy every second with that sweet little thing! 😍 (Unfortunately, time goes by SO fast....)
Due in 4 days with baby #2 💕 I had my first baby on my due date (lost my mucus plug 4 days before that and my water broke the morning of my due date)
With this baby at 38.6 weeks my doctor said the outside of my cervix was 1cm dilated and cervix was soft but the inside was not dilated yet. I am hoping this baby comes around the due date and not too long overdue ❤️ Loving your videos! Super helpful
Hey Trebushea! Thanks so much for commenting and for sharing this with us!! 😀👍💕
It is so helpful for pregnant women to read the stories from other pregnant women because it shows them that every woman experiences a pregnancy differently. And yet, everything is still perfectly normal!
Thanks so much again and we wish you that baby number 2 is coming very soon! All the best for you and the baby!! 💕💕

Hi guys, I wanted to jump on here to say a huge thank you. I watched your video (4 Aug '24) on the day I went into spontaneous labour at home. I knew I was having contractions, but they were still pretty mild at that point. When you mentioned the purple line, I grabbed a mirror and ran to the bathroom. And sure enough, there it was - a purple streak running from my bum to my coccyx, measuring 3cm! I couldn’t believe it. My partner and I headed to the birth centre, and the midwife confirmed I was 3cm dilated. She was really impressed and asked how I knew. A cool bit of knowledge that I’ll definitely share with the girls in my pregnancy yoga group. I’ll be recommending your TH-cam channel too!

Super helpful decided to deliver my baby at home myself since the hospital I do my appointments at have been very dismissive and unprofessional about my prenatal care and my issues with high blood pressure and risk of preeclampsia.
Hi there 😘,
we are very sorry to hear that you have not received the care that you deserve! One would believe that pregnant women are being treated with particular care. But no! We hear stories like yours ALL THE TIME.... ☹️☹️
In any case: we wish you ALL THE BEST for your delivery, for you and your baby!! ❤️
Going through the same thing right now. It is so stressful. Hope you’re okay!
34 weeks watching because I’ve had very intense Braxton hicks
Thanks so much for watching! ❤️❤️
We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️
First time hearing about the purple line, wow! Great info :)
Hi there 😊,

I'm 41 weeks tomorrow and don't have any labour symptoms yet. So this video is super helpful! Going to check the purple line and fundus hight right now 😊
Hi there! 😊
Thanks so much for your feedback! We are very happy that you find our video helpful! 😊
Please keep in mind that you can only use the fundus line to estimate your dilation, when you have a contraction. In other words, you would place your hand right below your bra line at the beginning of a contraction and check how many fingers you can fit...
We hope this helps! 😊
All the best for you and your baby! ❤️
@@CareAboutLittleOnes thank you for the clarification 😊
Can you advise on one more thing? My purple line is 9.6cm! But I have almost no labour symptoms (very occasional contractions). Do you think it's a coincidence in my case or would there be some dilation?
So glad I found your channel! 💫
@@s.a.w5493 Hi there! 😊
Here the problem: scientific research on the purple line is really at the beginning. We need much more research on it!
But normally, when a woman has a purple line, we can see that she is dilated. The only question is: how much? Scientists have found that there is a medium positive correlation between the cervical dilation and the purple line which means that there is a "trend" that the longer the line is, the more she is dilated. Because of that, some midwives have proposed to use the purple line instead of cervical exams to track labor progress (at least to some extend).
However, as always in pregnancy, there may be women who this does not apply to. So it could be that you are hardly dilated at all but still see a purple line! Pregnancies are so diverse! 🙈
We hope this information helps you at least a bit!! ❤️
All the best for you and your baby!! ❤️
@@s.a.w5493 I also have a long purple line (didn't measure but it's quite long) and no other signs of labor at all. Did you go in labor soon after discovering that line?
@@russallachka I didn't keep notes about it, but I was 12 days over. So if I was at 41 weeks when I posted that, it was a few more days before I went into labour. Started at 2am and delivered at 4pm so I don't think I was sitting at 9cm for half a week haha
Edit: also you've got this!! Sending good vibes for your delivery 💕
am 34 weeks and loving your videos. you guys are so pleasant
Hi there 😊,
this is very kind of you to say! Thanks a lot!! 😘We are very happy and grateful to hear that you like our videos!! 😊
We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! Only just a couple of more weeks to go before you can finally hold that sweet little thing in your arms! ❤️
I thought the Methode with of the purple line was hilarious, went into my bathroom to check it out and yep there is was, a purple line 😂. That is pretty funny but good to know!
Hi there Tina 😊,
yeah, we know! 😅 Many women don't believe us that the purple line exists! 😅
That said, we are just eagerly waiting for the results of another scientific study on the purple line, so that we can say more about how accurate it really is in predicting the dilation progress...
In the meantime, we wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby! ❤️

The sweetest professionals out there .Thank u
Aw, thanks so much for this lovely comment! Made our day!! 🥰🥰🥰

@@CareAboutLittleOnes I know you both probably have alot of people reach out to you, but I still wanted to say thank you. I did have a beautuful baby girl and becuase of the power of education and information. I was able to understand what was going to happen and what to do. I had a fear free and medication free labor. Thank you for being a part of my positive birth story.
@@dopamine1132 Hi there Angelina!! That's SO GREAT to hear!! 😍
First of all, CONGRATULATIONS on your newborn from the 2 of us!!! 🥳🥳🥳
Also, thank you SO MUCH for your lovely feedback!! 😍 It makes us incredibly proud that we could be part of your positive birth experience!! This is exactly what we hope to achieve with our channel!! 😊
We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby! Recover well and enjoy EVERY MINUTE with that sweet little thing!! 🥰🥰
The purple line is not working for everyone... i am 39 + 3 and i got 7cm purple line, last time my midwife checked my cervix it was still fully closed. :(
Hi there 😊,
we can confirm: at least 5 women wrote us since we posted this video that they have a purple line and were not dilated at all.
So yes, you are right: it seems that this does not apply to all women....
Don't be disappointed though! You don't need to be dilated before labor starts in order to have a normal delivery! Your contractions will take care of it.... 😊
We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️
Such smart people my goodness thank you! 😭🥰
That's extremely kind of you to say! Thanks SO MUCH! 😊😘 But actually, we cannot take any credit for this video. 😊 Because it is the result of many conversations with midwives, one obstetrician and reading scientific studies... 😊
Wishing you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️

37 weeks today and went for a membrane sweep, midwife said my cervix is halfway between anterior/posterior and im 1.5cm dilated already 🥳
Hi there Jennifer 😊,
that's great news!! Already 1.5cm in week 37!! Seems like your body is preparing for the big day! 🥳
We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️
Was it painful because I’m 38 4 and need one
OMG... today I am 35 weeks pregnant today but last night I freaked out a bit since I noticed the purple line about 5 cm long 😱, still can’t feel my cervix , I tried so I guess is not the time yet , it's my 1st pregnancy at almost 44 yo and I am a little afraid but super excited to meet my baby girl Sofia soon 🥰. I really wish there would be a way to tell when I will get into labour 🙄
Love your channel .
Hugs from NYC 🤗 🇺🇸
Hi there 😊,
We really wished there would be a way to find out when exactly women go into labor! 😊 It would make things so much easier!
Unfortunately, it's only guesswork. Same applies to the purple line - unfortunately, it can be very inaccurate in some women. So eventually, only a vaginal exam can tell you for sure.
But please don't be too worried about your dilation! We know, most women are. But your body knows exactly what it is doing. So the best thing to do is to relax during those final weeks of your pregnancy and to let your body do the job (although it's never wrong to support him with that - f.e. with our labor preparation tools) 😊
We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️

What is your status... How many weeks did you completed.... I also wanted vbac this time but i am worried
I am 37 weeks and a few days and I have been having a lot of lightning pains! I found out yesterday that I’m a “good 1cm” dilated. I also checked and I. Have the purple line as well. Very interesting.

I am happy I stumbled across your video. At 35+5 I was checked by my midwife and was 2 cm & 50% -2.
Today I'm 36+3, have been having a lot of irregular contractions. This will allow me to check and see if I'm progressing.
I'll get checked again this Friday (in 2 days) and see if I'm accurate 😀
Thank you!
Hi there Ashleigh 😊,
thanks SO MUCH for your lovely comment! ❤️ We are super happy if you find our video helpful! 😊
Please just keep in mind that the correlation between the length of the purple line and your dilation is only medium positive. Therefore, there is a lot of variability which means that for some women, this method may not be very accurate. We are eagerly waiting for the results of another study in the hopes to be able to post a table containing more accurate predictions based on the length of the purple line...
We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️
Very informational. I never knew either of these techniques and baby 6 is on the way!

My wife is already 39w with our 2nd baby. We are worried bcoz she doesn't feel any contraction or cramps at all. Her due is nearing (Dec 29, 2021). We wish for her safe and normal delivery just like our first baby.
Hi there 😊,
please don't worry too much about it! On average, a pregnancy lasts between 38 and 42 weeks. Everything within that range is considered "normal".
That said, there ARE things which have helped other women in similar situations:
1. Nipple stimulation (just keep in mind that it may not be done with a few minutes per day)
2. Reflexology (same as nipple stimulation: it may not be done with a few minutes per day only)
3. Acupuncture (acupuncture itself cannot induce labor; however, it can help in cases when a woman cannot go into labor because of high stress levels because acupuncture can really bring your stress levels down. So if your wife is really stressed, acupuncture could help)
4. Exercises on a birthing ball
Of course, there is also Castor oil. However, personally, we always treat Castor oil as last resort simply because of the side effects. Also, you can never be sure if it is going to work... Still, it CAN be super effective for labor induction. Just discuss with your doctor first, if Castor oil is the right tool in your particular case...
We talk more about these tools and also how to apply them in these 2 videos: th-cam.com/video/8rehbupwhzY/w-d-xo.html (reflexology, nipple stimulation, Castor oil)
th-cam.com/video/UgrbOc4cebY/w-d-xo.html (birth ball exercises)
Finally, keep in mind that things can sometimes go really fast. A woman may not see any signs of labor whatsoever. And then a moment later, she is in labor and a few hours later her baby is born (we have seen many such cases). This happens particularly often in second pregnancies because the body has done this once already...
So, again, please don't be worried too much!
We hope this helps! 😊
We wish you ALL THE BEST for the upcoming birth, for you, your wife and your baby!! 😊
@@CareAboutLittleOnes thank you so much, this is a big help. More informative videos to come. God bless!

My baby has been head down and very low for weeks now. Last week did I first start experiencing lightning crotch. I described it so well to my midwife because it really does feel just like a jolt of electricity shooting through your pelvis! Only 6 more weeks until I meet my little baby and very excited!
Oh, how exciting!! Thanks a lot for sharing this with us!! 😊
Indeed, you are now VERY close to finally meet your little baby!! 😍
We wish you ALL THE BEST for the remaining pregnancy, for you and your baby!! ❤️
@@CareAboutLittleOnes Thank you!! You guys are very sweet. ☺️❤️
Hello, at how many weeks did you have your baby.
I can't understand the purple line. Is the butt crack showing a line? I have 5 kids and 1 on the way. I've studied 3 midwives books and read about 6 different pregnancy books over the course of all of my 5 years of pregnancies. I feel like everything I've learned is being tested with this purple line. I am not computing can someone type it out for me so that I can't stop feeling like I'm missing something? Please? Maybe if I watch it 5-9 more times.
So it is a visible line? Where?
Ahh... I get it now so I can't see it on myself but I can have someone else look into my butt crack and tell me how dilated I am by the length of the discolored line from my butt hole to the top of the butt crack... approximately 10cm away from the hole.
I got it! I answered my own question.
It was overwhelming my brain with the new information processing.
😁😁
We love your comment!
Please keep in mind though that there is only a medium positive correlation between the length of the purple line and dilation and the standard deviation is quite high.
This means that for some women, this method will not be accurate at all!
Thank you!
We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️
Thank you so much for sharing valuable info! I’m 38 weeks but i feel like baby girl will arrive soon! Watching more of your videos now! 💓

We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby! ❤️
Thank you for the information! I'm 40 weeks today and have been having cramps and contractions for more than a week at this point. At my last check-up four days ago I didn't dilate any further though. It's been at 1 cm since the visit before that one. I don't have any of the other signs, as far as I can tell. I wish my contractions would actually lead somewhere. Being pregnant has been a pain and I'm ready to meet my baby.
Hi there ❤️
We are very very sorry to hear what you are going through! Unfortunately, such prolonged "phases of pre-labor" do happen to SOME women and they are extremely unfair because they are really discouraging. Plus, they drain lots of energy. 😬😬
Pre-labor means that you are having contractions, but they don't dilate your cervix. However, pre-labor contractions NORMALLY improve when you take a warm bath (20min). So maybe, this could help you with the pain?
And then once you see that your contractions progress (i.e. they come closer together, become stronger and more frequently), you are gradually progressing into the early stage of labor which NORMALLY means that your cervix dilates.
One thing that has helped many women at the clinic to progress is nipple stimulation. However, the problem is that at this point, your stress levels are probably through the roof, because a week of contractions is not a nice thing to experience. Because of that it could make sense to have an acupuncture treatment for relaxation too (at least, this is what we would do at the clinic). Also acupuncture COULD help induce true labor. So, those are really the 2 things that we often see work for other women in similar situations.
Maybe, they will help you too?
We wish you GOOD LUCK and ALL THE BEST for the upcoming birth, for you and your baby! We are sending you lots of positive thoughts in the hopes that you can soon go into labor! ❤️❤️
@@CareAboutLittleOnes Thank you very much for the care and for all that information! Yeah, hopefully that'll help things along.

Hiii
Now I am 39 weeks pregnant I have got cervical cerclage in 6th month of pregnancy at 37 weeks the stitches are removed and my doc is trying for Normal delivery my cervix length is 2.5, but my baby head is not getting into the position for delivery and the cervix is not opend till now. Up to now my doc told not to do exercise now she is asking to do exercise. So please give me suggestion for getting my baby into position and get the labour soon......
Hi there 😘,
we are not gonna lie to you: it is difficult to turn a baby at 39 weeks. The only exercises that we know that have managed to do this in the past are these: th-cam.com/video/e-kh6nxGkCk/w-d-xo.html
However, these work best between week 34 and week 36, at least in our experience. So, there is absolutely no guarantee that they help.
We also ask you to get the approval of your doctor first that it is okay to do those exercises - given your pregnancy case so far. Thank you!
We wish you ALL THE BEST for you and your baby!! ❤️
Loving the accents! 😆💓

On my fourth baby and never knew about the purple line! Thank you for this informative video 🥰
Hi there! ❤️
You are MOST WELCOME!! 😘 We are happy that you found our video informative!
Don't worry that you have never heard of the purple line before. Not many women know about it (some even try to scrub if off 😅). Also, according to scientists, some 75% of all women have a purple line. However, we doubt it! We think the number is considerably less (based on observations/feedback)...
Anyways: we wish you ALL THE BEST for you and baby number 4!! ❤️
Same! I had 4 girls and I’ve never heard of it either. My 1st daughter is pregnant which is why I’m watching now. She’s due in 12 days
I hope she had a great delivery, congratulations on your new grandbaby ❣️🥰🥰🥰
