    I had one done and I was 1cm and almost fully effaced - I went into labour the next day.

    There is some evidence that suggests that if you have a S&S at term 80% of women will go into labout within 48 hours

    good luck. I had one at 39 and 5 and i was 2cm. I went into labor 36 hours later. I was told if it was going to happen then it would within 48 hours.

    With number one I had a S & S (in UK) at 40w 2days and 1cm dilated, went into labour 24 hours later.

    Had one with number 2 but nothing happened, went 9 days over with her, went in to be induced and was contracting but wasn't feeling them! had waters broken, all progressed and had her 4 hours later.

    Good luck

    I had a S&S at 9am, I was 2cm dilated, my waters leaked from then on and I had my bub at 10:24 that night so I hope you're in labour right now!
