stay on your feet,do some housework in between having a sleep,this will let gravity take hold and trying to have a nap will keep your energy levels high.dont mean to disappoint you but i was 3cms dilated for 5 days,but as i had to stay in hospital from day 1 i spent most time sitting on the bed,but if i was at home i'd have ran up and down the stairs,and kept busy.but the main thing is that you get plenty of sleep,you never know when you are going to get a decent nights sleep from now.good luck and hope all goes well.

WALK WALK WALK. That's about all you can do. I've been doing this for 3 days, and nothing seems to work. Walking makes them go away, but my doctor keeps telling me to walk like crazy. That will turn false labor into real labor.
The longest I've known for someone to be at 3 cm is 5 weeks, so good luck!

If you are due now or overdue. Take a Tablespoon of Karo Syrup. It won't do anything bad. It will just put you into labor almost right away! Make sure the syrup is the clear not dark. The dark is for helping you poop.

What i used was what is called a "birthing ball" it is just this REALLY big bouncing ball that you sit on and bounce rock back and forth.... it also eased the contractions pains and I felt that I was more incontrol.

Did you ever think that the "baking ain't quite done in the oven" so this extra time is of benefit to the newcomer (whilst he/she packs their bags before they leave the hotel)?

walking, having sex, drinking red raspberry tea. whatever you do though, don't use castor oil, thats just used as a laxative.

Dont think you can, just let nature take it's course.
