WillamB83 Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 So I was talking to my pregnant cousin and she said she was like 1 centimeter dialated... What does that mean?
Isha Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 She means her cervix (the opening to her uterus) is 1cm open. link removed should help you understand.
dreamwarrior Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 So I was talking to my pregnant cousin and she said she was like 1 centimeter dialated... What does that mean? It means how far her cervix has dialated/open...is she near the end of her pregnancy? One centimeter is not much...she still has a way to go.
Taylor527 Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 Its how open her cervix (opening into the vaginal canal) is. You need to get to 10cm before you can push the baby out. If she is 1cm lets hope she is over 30 weeks pregnant, although she still has a long way to go - its not good to start to dilate too early in your pregnancy.
WillamB83 Posted February 6, 2009 Author Posted February 6, 2009 Thanks for your responses! She is going to have her baby this week or next week. I thought the dialation had something to do with her eyes lol
