Sweety it's hard to say everyone is different. When I went into labor with my son I know for a fact that I got to the hospital at 330 am. I remember it so well because I was laboring for a day before I went to the hosp. When they checked me at about 415 they said I wasn't dialated so for me to go home until my pains got stronger. I live about20 min. Without traffic from the hosp. So I just went to my mothers house because she lives a few blocks away from the hosp. When she got up to go to work I was still up in pain. I went back to the hosp. With her because she works there and got checked out again and I was already 4cm. I dialated 4 cm in 3 hours. But some of the girls here like chrissy was dialated 2cm for like two weeks I think. All you could do is wait . Good luck.

I started to dilate with my first baby at 36 weeks, it stopped naturally and I didn't have him until mid of the 41st week. However everyone and every pregnancy is different.

Everybody is different.... I looked back at my post and it was jan.7/04 I found out my cervix was thinnening out but I wasn't dilated...And shantae was born jan.13/04.....Good luck!
