September mommies! are you dilated or effaced? when are you due?

Dilation? effacement? Due date? Just wondering where everyone is and how they are feeling!! I am 1/2 cm dilated and 1/3 effaced and have 15 days to go, just some cramping and hip pain and trouble sleeping! So anxious to meet my baby!

Im 37 weeks due Sept. 20th... I don't know if I'm dilated or effaced for sure but the doctor told me I probably am effaced because of these contractions and the fact that Ive had some streaking. He says that means the BHs are doing their job so now I just wonder if she'll come early....

I'm due sept 18. Last week on Friday I was dilated 1 cm and 60% thinned out. Went into the hospital for dehydration the next day and I was dilated 2cm. I didn't get checked yesterday for dilation so idk if it's progressed.

I'm due the 6th. I'll be induced that day. I'm on meds to keep me from getting a blood clot and its safer for me if they can control when I go in to labor, so they can control when I take that med. So far not much progress last week OB said I'm still basically closed but softening. I guess it doesn't really matter since I'll be induced and not likely I'll have her early. I'm a FTM and can't wait to meet my daughter! Good luck mamas.

I'm due September 13th and I really have no idea if I am effaced or dilated because my doctor doesn't check till I've been in labor for a while. But it is heartening to hear how far along some of you are!
