COULD BE ANOTHER MONTH OR TWO OR COULD BE 2 DAYS OR2 HRS, ALL DEPENDS ON THE BABY & THE DUE DATE. I ONLY DILATED TO 1 CM AT 10 DAYS LATE THEN INDUCED DIDINT GO PASED 3 CM SO IT DOESNT MEAN MUCH TO ME.
it could be up to 2 weeks but not normally
Each person is different when it comes to pregnancy. Some women can stay at 1 CM dilated for a bit and then others can go right past that.
It is really hard to predict the onset of labor. These signs are signaling that you are well on your way though! You may go anytime, today, tomorrow or next week.
Impossible to say
8 more centimeters 10 total!
You don't have to be effaced or dilated to go into labor. But this could mean u will be waiting for the bundle of joy little longer! Good luck!
I am also 1cm dilated and 80% effaced...1 week ago I was 1 cm dilated and 70% effaced. It is different for everyone...Although my DR. said the norm was 3 days after you lose your mucus plug...good luck
Any moment now.
== == Theoretically, as long as you are past the point where the fetus is viable, active labor can begin any time in any pregnancy, no matter how much you are dilated or effaced. This means you could go into active labor in four minutes, four days, four weeks, etc. There's really no way to tell.
Yes, they will give you a large dose of magnesium which works as a muscle relaxer to stop your labor, then they will give you a smaller continuous dose to prevent you from going back into labor. I was 30 weeks pregnant, 3cm dilated and 80% effaced and they were very successful in stopping my labor.
Try walking. Not sure if it will work or not. That's what I have always heard
You shouldn't be having sex when you are dilated and or after 9 months pregnant. It could be dangerous to the unborn child. As for your question, It probably could bring on labor.
Not necessarily. It's the dilation that is important, just as much as effacement. You will need to be 100% effaced plus 10 cm dilated in order to give birth.
you can be dilated for months before you actually go into labor.
If your contractions are three min. apart then you probably already are in labor especially if you are already dilated and 80% effaced. If the contractions aren't regular then you aren't in labor but if it turns out that your not then you will most likely be going into labor really soon.
The baby probably isn't ready yet. Where I went to the hospital if you were 5cm dialated they would keep you and induce labor. you can be zero dilated and be in labor. As soon as your muscles start contracting you are in labor and have pains.
Walking and going up and down stairs can help with regular contractions and promote optimal positioning of the baby for labor, but they may not necessarily induce labor if your body is not ready. It's important to listen to your body and consult with your healthcare provider before engaging in any activities to try to induce labor.
