No-one can tell, you may go into labor tonight or you may go another 2 weeks.
I am also 1cm dilated and 80% effaced...1 week ago I was 1 cm dilated and 70% effaced. It is different for everyone...Although my DR. said the norm was 3 days after you lose your mucus plug...good luck
depending on the person and the number of pregnancies it could be hours to weeks.
no
Theres lots of wise tales. What has worked for me is a good foot massage as there are known pressure points in the foot that can trigger labor. I just had my daughter 2 years ago and I had a foot rub at 11pm and was in active labor by 10 am the next morning. Sex can trigger labor especially with an orgasm. The wisetales are spicy food and a good walk.
Dilation progress during labor can vary greatly among individuals, and being 1cm dilated does not provide a definite timeframe for when active labor will start. Factors such as the efficiency of contractions, the position of the baby, and individual differences in labor progression can influence how quickly dilation occurs. It's best to consult with your healthcare provider for personalized guidance on your labor progress.
Yes, however, on tv you have a contraction & you go to the hospital & the baby is born. With all of my babies, i had back pain & contractions for weeks before they were so painful i could not stand it (active labor- 4 to 8 cm dilated). So if the pain is not bothering you, you are probably having contractions & your body is gearing up to go into heavy, active labor soon!
Depends.. If this is not your first child. My doctor told me you would be already a Centimeter Dilated, bur if this is your first they would most likely have you come in to be monitored to make sure your labor do not convert to active labor because the baby is still premature.. If the cervix tend to dilate more, they will hospitalize you and to give you medicine to stop contracting.... They will try to hold the baby for at least 7 or 8 more weeks.. If there is an infection or internal issues and with the pregnancy, they will induce the labor
It could be from different doctors. Was it the same doctor? One doctor may have had smaller fingers than the other.
cervix
1cm = 10mm. So 14mm > 1cm.
