39 weeks an 3cm dialated what can i do to help dialation?

Answer 1

As uninviting as it may sound have sex, the semen contains prostaglandin hormone which with a ripe cervix will stimulate your contractions to start. Move around as much as you feel comfortable with - the pressure of your baby on your cervix will stimulate contractions which in turn will eventually open the cervix more. Don't despair! Your contractions are probably effacing your cervix, which mean it is being thinned out and pulled upwards. This is an important part of the work your body needs to do to have your baby. Sometimes, you can move unexpectedly quickly through the stages and dilation - I can't guarantee that though! So, if you don't feel up to walking or similar, choose positions that are more upright. And not being anxious about progress will actually help things move along.

Answer 2

just relax and let your body do the job it was designed to. the more you tense the longer it will take

also sex! sperm is known to soften the cervix, which may in turn help open it more :) worked for me, had sex, walked up & down stairs lots of times and BOOM contractions! but your body has to be ready as well.

Answer 3

contractions are what make you dialate.
