1cm dilated

Im at 37wks 4Days. Went to A&E this morning due to contractions, however no bleeding or waterbag burst.. technically i wasn't in labour so i opted to go home. Just curious how long does it takes for 1cm dilation to progress to labour.. and at how many cm dilation should i be to get in labour? I am so tired already.....

That is called a 'braxton hicks'. It feels like contraction but not as frequent as the real contraction. Really depends on individuals on how fast you can dilate. Some may take just minutes, some hours, some days. Since you're already in full term, do a lot of walking and squats. This really helps your cervix to dilate.
