LoveToKnow Pregnancy:AllComments

Honeymom, since you are still two weeks away from your due date, you don't really need to worry about dilation yet. If anything, you can be glad that the pregnancy is progressing as long as it is. if your doctor still doesn't notice any dilation in a week and half or so, he may consider giving you a drug like Pitocin to move things along. But not being dilated yet is okay.

Mommy33,

three days shy of your due date is considered full term. As long as your doctor thinks it's safe to start labor, there's no need to wait until the 30. Your body is sending you signals that it's just about time to get this baby moving. Good luck!
