GRose is right, you can be dialated by one cm for weeks. It may not mean that you will go into labor anytime sooner but I figure you have one thing going for you. Instead of 10~ You will only have 9 more when you get started!
Blessings to you and your baby!
Kim is right, it does not necessarily mean that labor will be coming soon, you can be a centimeter dilated for weeks before going into labor. When I had my son I was at 1 cm for about a week before labor, all pregnancies are different. Baby will come when baby is ready, you're not even considered full term yet.
no it does not mean your going to be going into labor soon and you dont want to move labor along. your baby will come when its time and the longer they are in their the healthier they are and the better chance they will have
