help??

I'm 34wks dilated to 2.5cm and 50% effaced this is my fourth pregnancy Dr doesn't expect me to go past 35-36 weeks could my water break anytime or could I go anytime? I should know this being my fourth but it's been a few years since I had a child?

Well I've been having contractions for a week now about 10min apart.... if by chance he came anytime would he be ok..... he has done very well with weight gain and heartbeat is strong and steady I'm just worried

I'm pregnant with my fourth and am 12 weeks my first was 1 day late and my second one was 10 day's early and my third was 14 day early so I think if you have fast deliveries on your other pregnancies it wouldn't hurt to monitor your contractions very closely and try to relaxant no sex it might hurry it along even faster. Hope everything works out and God bless

It all depends, your baby going to come when it wants. I found out at 35 weeks I was 4cm & 80% effaced but I've heard some people were like that too & still went over their due date. Just take your time & relax momma (:

My last two children both came at 36&37 weeks..... I'm not really sure I've always been told baby will come when wants to but all this dilation and efacement is happening earlier than the last two... that's why I'm seeking advise

It just depends, but typically yes babies tend to come faster the more pregnancies you have had. I think the most important thing for you is to keep your eye out for those contractions. After baby one when your contractions are 8-10min apart you should be heading to the hospital. Good luck momma :)
