I am 3Cms dilated 90 percent effaced and baby is at 0 pelvic station.how soon could labor start?

Any moment now.


Why am i having few contractions at 5cm dilated and 50 effaced?

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.


Will labor start soon if you are 36 ks and 2 days and 3cm and 50 percent effaced?

Not necessarily


You are 38 weeks 3-4cm dilated 75 percent effaced babys head is station 2 plus and just lost your mucus plug are you close to labor?

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.


If you are 90 effaced 3 cm dilated and the baby is at a positive 1 station how long until active labor starts Is there a way to hold it off?

Could be hours to days to weeks. Everyone is different. You will probably start active labor within 24 hours. There is no stopping labor at this point.


Does labor start at 3 cm dilation?

No. I have been dilated to 3 cm for over a week now. I was at 4 cm when I was induced with my first. My doctor said that one lady came in dilated to 10 cm (that's completely dilated) and was not in labor yet. She had to be induced.


Does 50 percent effaced mean you will go into labor soon?

It could. In a first time mom effacement is often the slowest part of labor and you are already half way there! Once labor starts you will start dilating and finish effacing. When you begin - your cervix may still be closed tight or it could be a "finger tip" meaning slightly less than 1 cm or you may start dilating before labor and walk around at 3 cm or more for a week or two. Once you are 10 cm and completely effaced you will start pushing and your baby will make his or her grand entrance. Congratulations!


I am 2 CM 75 effaced my Mucus Plug fell out the other morning when do you think Labor will start Hopefully u will not tell me when the baby is ready I am sooo uncomfortable. I also have Toxemia.?

i think that if the mucus plug comes out, you're labor should start in 24 to 48 hours.


You are 38 weeks and 80 percent effaced and 1 cm and the baby is -1 station how long will it be until you go into labor?

Labor is defined as regular contractions that cause progressive cervical change. The key is CHANGE, so it is hard to tell when labor will start based on your dilation and effacement. Alot of women can spend weeks being 3cm/50% and not be in "labor" because their cervix isn't changing. If you are dilated, then it is safe to assume you will soon be going into labor, but that is not always the case.


39 weeks and 2cm and 60 percent effaced had membrane stripped when will labor start?

It will start when it will start. Sometimes stripping membranes will speed up the process, but not in any predictable fashion. Women's bodies seem to be hard wired (genetically) for a given gestational period (how long she stays pregnant). A normal gestational period for the human species is 37.5 to 42 weeks, but most women tend to deliver about the same time with each pregnancy.


Are you in labor if you are 1cm dilated and have lots of back pain?

Yes, however, on tv you have a contraction & you go to the hospital & the baby is born. With all of my babies, i had back pain & contractions for weeks before they were so painful i could not stand it (active labor- 4 to 8 cm dilated). So if the pain is not bothering you, you are probably having contractions & your body is gearing up to go into heavy, active labor soon!


Im 35 weeks and im 3 cm and 100 effaced when will labor start and should you take castor oil to start it?

You are still a couple weeks off of wanting to have ur baby. If i were you I would wait one more week...i know that sounds like alot but im 2cm dialated 60 percent effaced and 33 weeks and they put me in the hospital and on restricted bed rest....my doctor told me im not leaving till im 37 weeks....give ur baby the best chance...sides caster oil is a horrible thing to do...i tried it with my daughter and was sick for 3 days...never even gave me a contraction....nipple stimulation works wonders...
