I was about 4 cm dilated for two weeks before I had my daughter.  You don't need to use a condom to have sex, they say that the semen can help move things along, also nipple stimulation really helps.  Good luck!  Those things didn't work for us though, DH and I had sex everyday when I was 4 cm dilated and 75% effaced for the week before I finally went in and had our daughter, we had sex without using a condom and our daughter was very healthy.  

Also, I don't remeber losing my plug.  I think it happend gradually and I never noticed.  I've heard about two weeks or less when you lose your plug.

Hope it happens for you soon.  Good Luck!

I was dilated at 1 cm and went into labor about a week and a half early still at 1 cm. My friend was at a 2 from about a month before her due date and ended up going over a week so dilation really doesn't matter.

My doc said its fine to have intercourse w/o a condom once you loose your plugg and I did and my son is fine! I think its more of a personal choice! Good Luck and Labor Dust

Make sure to use condoms, as yes  you are at risk for infection. In fact I think they say after 34??? weeks to alwyas use a condom incase you are dialated at all

Did your doctor tell you not to have sex?  If he didn't say anything about it, by all means get him to pop that baby out!  LOL

I never had bloody show, but did lose my mucous plug in chunks. It's like really weird, clearish gelatin. It can range in sizes, too, depending if it came out all at once or in pieces.

You can lose it weeks before labor, though... I know you don't want to hear that!

When I was pg with my dd I lost mucos plug about 2 weeks before she decided to come.  She came on her due date.............I hope you go soon, I know the last weeks are miserable.  I was so glad when Jacob made his early appearance................I was so uncomfortable, and totally wasn't expecting him early, but was glad.........Good luck  lot and lots of labor dust!!!!!!!!!

Did they not even do a U/S to measure your fluid?? If you had a significant gush you would think they would have made sure there was still plenty for baby! Well I hope it goes faster than they are saying for you mental status LOL. Good luck dear!

There;s a good chance that your Dr might not sweep wince you still have 2 weeks to go, with all of my friends thier Dr wouldn't do it until they reached the due date, except one who was due Christmas day and the Dr was going to be away...aand it didn't help anyways her boy was born jan 4

Well dilation doesn't mean they'll go into labor first or anything. You can be dilated for weeks and still have to be induced. OR... you can not be dilated but find yourself at the hospital ready to push!

Keep a smile on! The little one will be here before you know it.

There is nothing going on down below....im only like a finger tip or something so he cant sweep my membranes..he says he knows how hard it is the last month but to have patients that it will happen!! He says it should be easier then my first labour too!! SOmething to look forward too!!

Congrats to all of them..BUt no fair....ughhh...i guess ill just have to wait!!

LABOR DUST! Sorry it wasn't it for you last night. I completely understand your frustration and having to be sent home still pregnant. Keep your chin up! That baby has a 2-week Eviction Notice and will be out by then!
