2cm dilated 50% effaced

Brooke

I went to the doctor today for my 40 week checkup. I was due November 20th but baby girl is taking her sweet time. Anyways she checked me and I’m only 1 1/2-2 cm dilated and 50% effaced. I’ve been cramping low since Monday night and today it’s been on and off. Are these contractions or just cramps?
