How much longer do you think I have to go? This is what the doc said yesterday:
37 weeks, 5 cm, 80% effaced, station is -2.
Has anyone had a similar experience? Being this far and having nothing happen? If so, how long did you stay that way?

i went right up to 3 days before my due date, and it is torturous, but its normal. you should have the baby soon if you are 5 cm. I went into the hospital after my water broke at 1 cm, and had him 5 hours later, so you are close, and just know- sleep alot now, cuz once you are home with that little munchkin, you wont want to!!!

I was at 38 weeks and 5 cm, and 5 hours later my son was born. However, I was at 3 cm for 5 weeks. Good luck and congratulations!

I'm almost 37 wks (will be on Mon) and I'm at a 1. With my 1st I was sat a 1 for weeks. But I was told by my doctors in this case and with my 1st that if I was at 4cm they would admit me. I'm sorry I' not very much help. Good luck with labor and delivery. I hope it's comes soon for you.

You could go at any time. Every person is different and every pregnancy for one woman is different than her others. You can do a few simple tricks to get it going or just wait until your body and baby are ready to do it go on their own.
Having sex, spicy food, scrubbing a floor are all things that can trigger labor if your ready.
My advice is to stay comfortable, get as much rest as possible and let the little one finish developing as long as possible, let him/her get ready for the world.
Good luck!
