ok i am 35.5 weeks pregnant. I have been having cramping for about a week and a half, which has turned out to be early contractions, nothing significant yet. It just feels like menstrual cramps. I have also lost my plug on the 29th with no blood, and have been having softer more frequent bowel movements for about two weeks. Well, just yesterday i was told that my cervix is is softening and effaced....but i was not told how effaced on account of he is not my normal doctor, and he said he has no previous examinations to base it off of...so my question is...
what are your stories of effacement..(with your first pregnancy)...how long after being effaced did you dilate...how long do you think it could be for me till i deliver....just curious on everyones previous experience and what you think may happen for me.
Thanks!!
P.S. I am still trying to figure out this site..is it possible for me to respond to your answers..if so HOW? lol..thanks

I was dilated to 2 and 100% effaced 8 days before I had the baby.

I don't remember my 1st but my second I was effaced for 2 weeks before I started dilating and even then it wasn't enough for labor to begin so my doctor induced me.

Your wager is as well as someone elses. What your cervix is doing method not anything approximately while exertions would begin. It would be in these days, it would be four weeks from now. And you did not point out while you had been due.
