I am 1 cm dilated and 60-70% effaced. It's a start.
My sister never dilated and was ~12% effaced when her doctor admitted her to L&D at 41 weeks so at least I am ahead of her.
I know I could stay like this for a while, but at least it's some progress.
Re: 36 week appt
That's great. You must be excited. I'm expecting nothing at my 36 wk appointment on Friday. I last had an internal 2 weeks ago after a night of strong, painful contractions and there was no progress to report. So I'm envious of your progress.
My 36 week apt is tomorrow and I'm just hoping to have an internal. I need to feel a little light at the end of the tunnel!
Congrats
