Dilated??

I'm due August8th. Went to doctor today I'm 35+4days. I'm measuring 37! I'm dilated 1cm. How long did it usually take to go into labor after you've started dilation? I have dropped but not any pains yet.

I'm 35+4 due August 9th I'm 3CM dilated and 50% effaced. Been that way for a week now. I know we can stay as is for a few weeks. Best of luck to you all and we're almost there!!!

It could take days or weeks it all depends on the person, they induced me with my last I had been at 1 cm for two weeks and then I was in labor for 37 hours and still never dilated more than 2 cm
