I had a doctors app. tuesday, and have been spotting, so the doctor checked me, and said that I was 2-3 cm dialated, and 80% thinned....this was 2 days ago! I thought something would happen by now, how long can you be stuck this way? Just curious if anyone has expierenced this, and for how long?

Although I've not experienced this before (coming son), I've heard and read that you can stay that way for anywhere from a few hours, days or a week or so. It really just depends. My doctor just tells me that "the baby will come when it's ready." Hang in there and good luck!

I thought I would answer my own post incase someone else had the same question, I ended up being 2-3 cm for a week, and with lots of walking, I made it to my next week visit, and then I was 3-4 cm, but the next morning my beautiful baby boy made his entrance, but "MichelleG" is right, I did read lots of places that you can be dilated like that for months.

I am a first time mom and I have been dialated at 1 cm for two and a half weeks. Hopefully the baby will make a move.

I am curently 38 weeks prego, on saturday (3 days ago) I was 3 cm dilated and 70% effaced. I have been back and forth to the hospital for mild contractions for the third time in two weeks, and they keep sending me home saying the contractions are not yet strong enough to dilate my cervix more, yet. I lost my mucus plug 5 days ago and I have been having mild bloody show since yesterday, but no more contractions and no baby... I have a Dr appt tomorrow and I am going to beg for induction at 39 weeks if something doesnt happen before then.

hi im 37 weeks and 3 centemeters and 60% thinned does any one think that it will take longer then a week

Everyone is so different. I was 50% and at a 2 at 37 weeks, was still there when I went in to be induced at 41 weeks and stayed that way into day 2 of the induction. I really thought that I was going to hurt the nurse each time she told me I was at a 2. My sis was at a 1 and went in shortly after that. Hope you go sooner rather than later. Congrats, not long now!

I am also in the same situation. I went to the doctor yesterday and he said that I am 3 cm dilated, and 60% effaced. I was 2 cm dilated for about a week. I am wondering how long till I actually have this baby. Can anyone help?

Just got back from my 36 week appointment - I'm 2 cm and 70% effaced. He also said he could feel the baby's head and that I was a -2. I don't know if I've lost my plug. What's more important - dialation or effacement? I contract every day but they don't really hurt, just make me uncomfortable. I've also starting getting some pains in my lower abdomen throughout the day. I guess we'll see!

I was in labor for 38 hours and was at a 4 for 15hrs out of the 38hrs. So you can go a long time and have nothing happen

Hello I am 10 days away from my due date and 3cm and at about 70% for a weeks now. Doesnt seem to be anything else going on except for them Braxton Hicks of course. Just wondering on a possible time frame.
