You can start to dialate? Or have heard
of someone dialating?
When do the contractions start coming
in?
I wanna prep myself!

Hey jess. You can be dialated for
months. Sorry I don't know the exact
earliest time. And you can get
contractions for awhile too. With my
first baby I had contractions on and off
for a couple weeks. I went 10 days
late. And I was so tired by the time I
really went into labor b/c of weeks of
contractions.

Hey jess. It all depends on each person.
If you dialate early like before 36 weeks
its considered pre term labor which I
dilated at 26 weeks and delivered my son
at 28 weeks. So every pregnancy is
different hun. Its really hard to say or
pin point it... Good luck though you will
def. Know when you are in labor

well tech. You have 6 more weeks to go.
You can do it hun, I know its hard and it
gets difficult but just remember for every
one day in your body is two days out here.
Right now is the time when his lungs are
developing and preparing him to breath on
his own. Zachary was born at 32 wks and
still required a little oxygen to help him
breath when he was born. They also had to
give me shots in my thigh and butt to help
develope his lungs quicker because I was
in labor with him. So just hang tight it
will all be wll worth it in the end I
promise....
