Aa
curious. ...
Just got back from doc 39 weeks and only 1 cm dialated and 50% effaced. Baby will prob come late then right?!
I was having contractions at 39+2 and was only 1cm dilated so I was sent home from the hospital, sure enough as soon as I arrived home my contractions stopped.. 4days later I was having inconsistent contractions and that night my waters broke, I was only 3cm dilated and 60% effaced but a few hours later with a few strong contractions I was fully dilated and fully effaced and after an hour of pushing my little one was born.. Be assured that all those irregular contractions are putting your baby in the right direction for delivery :)
When I had to be induced with my stillborn back in 2013 I dilated from 5 to 10 in about 20 minutes. Now that's fast lol.
Oh wow you dialated fast lol and good luck to you waiting. .. our babies will be here soon:)
I went in for 39 weeks checkup. My doctor told me that I was dialated 1 cm and my cervix was very soft. But he never mentioned the % effacement. I am due in 3 days and I am getting irregular contractions. Hoping to hear some good news in my next appointment. ..
When I went into labour I went from 4 to 10 in about 5 hours lol.
Much further dialated than me, but good to see you were 50 % effaced like i am! Thanks for response! :) and i know everyone is different, but I'm a ftm and just curious as to what other people have experienced and what they might think! Thanks ladies:)
I was 2cm and 50% at my 36 week appointment and then 3cm and 50% at my 38 week appointment. My baby came at 39 weeks.
Oh yea i believe her just didn't know if anyone else had been in my position before and what happened. Should have worded it better.... pregnancy brain at its best lol; )
Melissa is right.
Anyone else have any input on this:) or any experience as well! ?
Really! ? That's kinda reassuring bc i want baby to be here soon lol been having contractions that are painful but inconsistent.
Dilation and effacement really are no indication of when labor will happen.
