3 cm, 75% effaced, and lost plug...?

Question

as of yesterday, but I'm still not having any contractions! My friend told me that when she was at 3 cm she was on drugs already!!! Is this normal? Yesterday I was thinking I would go into labor, but still nothing.

Oh, and tomorrow is 39 weeks for me...

Answer 1

My advice is to ring the hospital where you are going to have the baby and talk to one of the midwives there. If this is your first baby it can be a bit of a stressful time, so why not chat to someone who knows. I have heard of this happening before and sometimes the labour can come on quick. Good luck to you.

Answer 2

every woman is different. im 2cm and 70% effaced, and 38 weeks, i went into early labor at 36 weeks. i was given terbutaline to stop me from contracting. but now that i am full term, nothing. i hardly get contractions  

Answer 3

if you have lost your plug then that is called a show and labour is only around the corner..

good luck
