38 weeks but not dilated any.

Mummy, there is still another 2 weeks. so no worry if there is no dilation yet. Some people dilate early, some late, some fast, some slow. Having dilation is just a sign that your body is preparing for labour but does not mean your baby is coming out soon. My first pregnancy I had been dilated for 1.5cm since week 36 and 3cm in week 37 but only gave birth in week 39. Then my 2nd pregnancy I had been dilated for 1.5cm since week 37 and thought I would give birth early as people say 2nd pregnancy is faster. But the dilation remains at 1.5cm all the way til my EDD. On morning of my EDD, my dilation remain the same as well and no other sign of labour. I arranged for inducement that night and suddenly I experience labour pain when I am just reaching hospital. Having said that, walking and squats do help. It will also help you have a smoother labour. Lastly, based on my survey from people around me, I realised that if you are having a boy, there is a very high chance that it will only come out after EDD and lead to the need for inducement. >
