Trust me, I understand! Some women dilate very slowly over several weeks (like I did) or some dilate very quickly with no-doubt-about-it contractions! You might ask your doc if they'd be willing to strip your membranes (warning: it hurts) - that combined with lots of sex helped get things going for me!!! No kidding! Both of those things release prostaglandins that help stimulate uterine contractions. I swear we were doing it so much, it was like we were trying to get pregnant again!

Re: Is it normal to bleed after a cervical exam to check for dilation?
