A member asked:
39 weeks 5 days been 3 cm for 6 days and my mucus plug just came out. how soon do you think it'll be before labor comes and what can i do?

Cervical change: Being 3cm dilated but still not in labor is discouraging but not that uncommon. Some of the things that maybe noticed is that everything needs to be clean and in order, "nesting". You may notice increased pelvic pressure, increased vaginal secretions. The activity level of the baby may change slightly. Most pregnancies deliver on or right around the due date, hence the first trimester ultrasound
