There's no way to tell how long before you
go into labor. Some people start dilating
early (say 35 weeks) but don't go into
labor until 41 weeks. It could be 2
weeks, it could be 4 weeks, it could be 6
weeks. Try not to think about it, it'll
happen when it happens.

This is true. There's just no way to
know. I am 34 weeks and dialated to
1-2cm and have been for almost a week now.
My doc's are treating me for preterm
labor assuming I will deliver early, but
have also explained to me that I could
even end up being over due. (not likely,
but possible) I have always heard that
once you get to 3-4 cm you are more in the
active stages of labor, but some women go
from 1-4 rather quickly while others take
weeks. When is your next appointment?
Good luck.

With my first son I was dialated 6cms and
they sent me home and two days later my
water broke...
With my daughter I had an irratated utarus
and it kept thinking it was in labor for
almost two weeks before my water broke.
