75% Effaced and 2Cm Dilated... When Do You Think I'll Deliver?

First of all, I just want to say that I know that no one can predict when some one will deliver. That being said... It's always fun to guess, right?

I'll be 36 weeks on Wednesday. My due date is October 28. Today at my check up my doctor told me that I am 75% effaced and 2cm dilated.

So when do you think that I'll deliver? The person who guesses the closest will get a sticker or something :P

What can I do next?

I say October 27th. I was same as you with first child, progressed to dialated to 3 for about 3 weeks. However I still had to be induced. Same way with my second child. Good luck to you!

I love the answers you have been getting so far!! My favorite is... exactly when the baby wants to arrive!! It is so true. I was dialated to 3cm and 75% effaced for about 5 weeks. Your body is just getting ready, be patient it will happen just at the right time! Congrats and keep that baby cooking for a few more weeks!

Hmmm, I'm gonna go with October 9th. And we'll also send prayers that all goes well. Is this your first? Could your due date be off a little? My youngest (now 6) was three weeks early but weighed nearly 8 lbs. My date was either off a bit or I would have had a ginormous kiddo at 40 weeks. Either way, he turned out as healthy as could be. Good luck with everything and God Bless!

You can walk around for another three weeks or so. If it is your first, I say
39 weeks. If it is 2nd probably by 38 weeks. Only the baby knows for
sure LOL.

I think you'll deliver when it is the MOST POSSIBLE INCONVENIENT time, especially for your husband, tehehehe.

So if you got a big event coming in the next few weeks you MUST be at, that'll be the day!
