Holy EFF I'm dilated already

Granted, I'm only 1 cm, but the floodgates were LOCKED, so to speak, with Nora until I was nearly 41 weeks!

Needless to say, I am more than a little surprised. Who knows?? Maybe BSF will be making an earlier appearance than I expected!

Re: Holy EFF I'm dilated already

  • At that point, with both, I was dilated.  I didn't go into labor with either until 40w.  Good luck to you though!

  • I was 1 cm dilated and 50% effaced at 36 weeks w/ Addie, but she still came on the day of her scheduled c-sect! With Amelia I never dilated until I went into labor at 39 weeks, 2 days.
  • That's when I started dilating for dd.  I felt her drop and the next appt I went to, I was dilated 2 cm.
  • With my first I didn't start dilating until I was in labor (40 weeks) and with my second I was already 2cm at my 35 week appt and 5cm by the time I went to my 40 week appt. He showed up 3 days past my edd.

    Anything can happen still.

  • Yeah I know 1 cm is not a big deal, and I'll probably end up going until my c-section date anyway but you just never know! :)

  • Lucky beyotch! =)  I got nothin' as of last Wednesday.  I know it doesn't predict WHEN you'll deliver, but as far as I'm concerned, any dilating I do before the pain begins is a bonus!  If you're having a c-section, though, I guess it doesn't much matter.  Keep us posted!
  • Hey!  Did you see my post from this afternoon?  I'm freaking 4cm and 80% effaced!!!!!!  I'm about to crap my pants with all of my anxiety right now.  Plus, I feel like a walking time bomb, like the baby is just going to fall out of me at some point in the next few days.  hahaha  Definitely keep us updated!

  • And I just noticed that you did, indeed, see my post from earlier.  During my freaking out I couldn't remember ;)

     

    And to add to that, I only saw this post because I sorted the posts by views and didn't realize that it was a post you made yesterday...so you probably won't even see all of my rambling!

  • OMG!  I am so excited!
