Reply. seansgirl2006 member. July 2009. I was only 1 1/2 at 39 weeks and did not have to be induced. I went to my 39 wk appt in the morning and was 50% effaced. Went in to labor a few hours, stayed at home, checked in to hospital that night and was still 1 1/2 but 90% effaced.I was 2 cm for a month with my first...and 4 cm for 2 or 3 weeks with my 2nd and she didn't come until the day before her due dayThe first stage of labor includes early labor, also known as the latent phase, and active labor. Stage one involves cervical dilation and effacement of the cervix. Dilation is when the opening in your cervix widens, and effacement is the thinning and softening of your cervix. Once the cervix is 6 cm dilated, your body moves into the active phase.m. marciamaria. My last pregnancy I was 4cm at 36,37,38 weeks labor finally came at 38 weeks. m. meghoss. @jessi3324, I am 37 wks and I have been at a 3.5 for the last 4 weeks as of Friday I'm at a 4 and no labor pains for me yet either. With my last two I was at a 4.5 for 2 weeks before my water broke at 38 weeks.I was induced for medical reasons starting at 1am at 38+1. I was 0cm, not soft, nada, no movement whatsoever toward baby eviction. My body overreacted to the cytotec and cervadil so I got my epidural at 0cm around 2pm due to intense pain making cervical checks impossible. Baby was born at 4pm on 38+2. It took forever.This phase typically lasts from three to five hours and continues from the time your cervix is 3 cm until it is dilated to 7 cm. True labor produces signs you donât want to ignore. Your contractions will last about 45 seconds to a minute and allow you only three to five minutes in between.LnR70707 member. May 2011. 1st timer here, but from what I've heard...you can be 1-2cm dilated for weeks. I start internals next week, but I've already lost chunks of my mucus plug, so I wouldn't be surprised if I am starting to dilate. The effacement is probably the bigger concern. GL!.
