So I'm 35 weeks on wednesday, just been to the doctor and she checked me as I've been having a lot of pains, braxton hicks, bit loose, all the symptoms. Anyway she said I've got about 1-2 cm left to efface and my cervix is soft and 1cm dilated, my plug has gone.she's estimated 2-3 weeks till I'm ready to go and as braxton hicks are doing things she said it should turn out to be an easier labour then with my first, was induced and took 24 hours. Is this wishful thinking that things are actually progressing and it may not be that long? I went 2 weeks overdue with first so I'm really happy about this news.
