3cm Dilated At 38 Weeks Posted: 01-13-06 17:25pm
Hi there i'm 38 weeks + 5 days and really
frustrated as my daughter was born at 38
weeks and I want this baby out! Anyway I
went to my midwife appointment this
morning and begged them to do another
cervical sweep (had one done a week ago)
she did it and said I am 3cm dilated and
50% effaced. I'm really happy and had
mild back pains after which have gone
now.
Last week when I had it done they said I
was 2cm and 30% effaced.
Just wondering if anyone had had a similar
experience and how soon after they went
into labour. Thanks.

My wife was 1cm and 90% effaced at 36
weeks, she didn't dialate further until
week 38 and she was 2cm and still 90%
effaced.
Not uncommon at all to be dialated for
more than a month.
