that totally depends from person to person. Every birth and every pregnancy is different. Generally speaking though, if your waters break, your labour is a lot quicker but that is no guarantee either. I was 2 cm dilated for a month before my son was born and when my water did eventually break it took 5 hours from the time my water broke until he has born. I was in active (pain) labour for about 3 of those hours. With my first son I was in labour for 18 hours but the hospital had to break my waters. Good luck with everything.
Usually the airline have a limit for pregnant women for flying, around 7 months, so if you are about to start labor anytime it is def not allowed.
12 to 24 hrs after she should start birthing
i think that if the mucus plug comes out, you're labor should start in 24 to 48 hours.
A pregnant cat will start licking when she is getting towards time for labor.
The same way you do at any age.To increase your chances of getting pregnant you may want to start charting your cycle using body temperature and cervical mucus.
The mucus plug can be lost several days, or even a week before labor starts, so not necessarily.
Many women start leaking colustrum during pregnancy, which is normal and does not mean you are going into labor.
Everyone woman is different when it comes to dilation. Some may not start to dilate until their water breaks and even then, some woman do not start then. I've been a new mother now for 3 weeks. It took me over a period of 3 days to completely lose my mucus plug and I started my dilation before I lost my mucus plug and even then it took me 2 more weeks to have my son. So just be patient, your wonderful bundle of joy will be here sooner than you think!! Congratulations!
Especially if this is your first pregnancy, your body could take an unpredictable amount of time to get ready for labor. Generally, loss of the mucus plug means labor will start soon, but it could still be several days or more. It is not uncommon for a woman to be 2cm dilated for at least a few weeks at the end of pregnancy.
when did china labor start
If you are having terrible pains in your lower abdomen, then you will be in labor, but if you feel like your baby is low in your belly and is about to come, then you are most likely about to start labor. Beleive me i know, I've had 3 kids.
