Another search term for the week: "how to get your cervix to dilate from a 1 to a 4"
I have no clue what situation this person was in who searched for this, but the more I watch birthing women, the more I am convinced that the magic key to all questions about cervical dilation is.....PATIENCE :)
I know, I know. Not the answer you wanted, but it really is true. Research is backing up that answer too. Just do a search on my blog for dilation, and you'll find some. There are things that we can do, both medically and non-traditional, that helps the cervix dilate. You can find some of those on my blog too, as well as my newsletter, but the key is just having patience with yourself and your baby. If you do you will get more sleep, be more prepared for labor really gets going, psychologically, you will fell better about the whole process(forcing your body to do something it's not ready to do is a bit of a roller coaster mentally), and your baby is less likely to have heart rate problems. That said, there are of course always medical indications, but that's a whole other ball game.
