how much longer anything else that i can do?

Answer 1

1 week tops

less if you walk around and exercise .. having sex will also help you dialate farther faster

Answer 2

Congratulations, if your 2 centimeters and thinning out that means you are in your first stages of labor, Firstly it can sometimes take a while for you to reach 10 centimeters but within saying that there are a few things you can do to help speed it up others that may slow you down,

Do- walk as much as you can,the gravity will help bring the baby down,
Don't- have sex it could infect your baby now your starting to dilate.
you can have a warm but not to hot bath, don't stay in there to long as it may slow you down, labor wise that is.
Keep in touch with the hospital and doctor so you know when to go up to the hospital.
Remember this is your baby the arrival depends only on them could be an hour could be 48 hours, be prepared for anything

Answer 3

With my last 2 daughters I was 2 centimeters dilated and I looked on the internet and you can drink 4 oz of castor oil mixed with orange juice I think like every 4 hours. And rub castor oil on your stomach and cover with a warm wash cloth and this absorbs thru your skin and is supposed to help with contractions if you are having any. Some people think it is crazy but it has worked for me 2 times and I had my baby that night both times. LOL

Answer 4

It could be today or a week or two from now. Babies are funny that way. Stay close to your support, but get to walking, sexing and everything else. All those things will help you to progress. Walking will help to bring the baby down more and the semen from sex will help to further thin out your cervix. I have 10 weeks left to go so I must admit that I am JEALOUS but congrats. Your baby will be here soon (but possibly not soon enough for you Im sure).

Answer 5

Make sure your bags are packed you'll be there in 2- 3 days max! maybe sooner... All you can do is relax... Relaxation will speed up the diatation process.... labor should start soon..... Women who can't relax usually have longer labor...
Good luck, and congrats! Baby is knocking at the door!!! :) Cheers from your yahoo friends! Yaay!!

Answer 6

It is so funny that you are asking this question...iasked it 3 days ago. i am in the same boat as you...some ppl say it will be any day now and others say you can be at 2 cm for up to 3 weeks. They told me once i got to 3.5 to 4 than i can count on going into labor. How far along are you?

Answer 7

At 32 weeks, with my first, I was 2 cm dilated. I was pulled out of work and put on bed rest...then 6 weeks later I was 4cm dilated. I had my son 3 days before my due date. It all depends...

Answer 8

There's no way to tell. You could dilate the rest of the way tonight and have your baby 6 hours from now, or you could stay pregnant for another two weeks. It all depends on your contractions as to how fast you dilate.

Answer 9

go out to eat somewhere like Olive Garden and have egg plant Parmesan. I is supposed to tighten you uterus our something. My cousin and I both went out to eat it after we heard about it inducing labor on the news. She had her daughter the very next day. And I had my daughter less than 12 hrs after she had her daughter. I was also 2 cm dilated at that time.

Answer 10

i was dialater for 2 months at at 2 and for about 2weeks at a 3 the i finally had mine everybody is diff. tho when is your due date and that might help...just walk alot and that baby will be here

Answer 11

You are on your way!! Congratulations!!
I wouldn't rush it!!!
it can be anywhere between now and a couple weeks or maybe, hope not, longer...
i know how you feel, but trust me it is well worth the wait.... you have that extra time to rest!!!! Hope you have a wonderful delivery....
