what did your doctor say??? You can walk around 4 cm dilated and effaced for 3 weeks (I'm one of them). No one can tell you what will happen, only time.
I mean I am hopeful to have her soon but I never thought you could dilate this early and be effaced with a bulging bag... it worries me but I just wanted to know what everyone's experience was. Doc said to take it easy. So I have been. I do want her in here as long as I can. They want her to atleast wait till 37 weeks.

Sounds like the doc gave you your answer. You could have her soon, which is not in her best interest, and you should prevent going into labor early by following your doc’s recommendation and taking it easy.

My doctor told me a story about one of her patients who reached 5cm dilation early and then walked around like that for 4 weeks. Doctor said they ended up having to induce her. So anything is possible. I agree with others on here - just follow your doctor's advice.
Re: Labor soon???
Also, ask your doctor.
