I have been having contractions off and on for a bout a month. The first time I went to the hospital they stopped them. Well this past weekend i was admitted and they tried EVERYTHING to stop them...well they had no luck. I was released and told that there was nothing they could do until I started dialting(I was check about 6 times at the hospital for dialation-but none) I am currently having contractions all day everyday...any suggestions on how to help myself dialate???

You're probably having braxton-hicks contractions, or false labor. I had lots of it with my boys. It's not normal to have contractions without dialation, unless it's just false labor. When baby is due, you'll dialate, even if it's slowly.

It would help people to answer your question easier if you specify how many weeks u are.....BUT, for me I ended up having a caesarean when I wouldn't dilate. Once your water breaks, if you continue to not dilate, you may as well just request a caesarean because thats what will end up happening anyway.
It's scary but will save you a good 20 hrs of pointless waiting!
Good Luck!

there really isn't anything you can do but wait.
