It is definatly a good sign!
Thanks ladies! I was wondering because with my first I went 41 weeks and was not softened or dilated when they finally induced me they spent a whole day trying to soften and dilate me before they could give me pitocin. So I hope since I'm already completely softened and dilated 1 cm I'm close...
The cervix gets soft as it prepares for labor. You are close and your body is preparing.
It could..and it could also be a few weeks. It just means your body is progressing slowly into the next phase. It could happen today, and it could happen in 4 weeks.
