Can you go into labor without being dilated?

Question

Just wondering if it is possible to go into labor without being dilated or effaced?

Answer

I went in active labor at 41 weeks, at home. when I got to the hospital,  I was 1 cm only , but 100% effected.
so yes, it very possible.

Answer

Yes absolutely. Dilation really means nothing until you’re in labor, so don’t be disappointed if you get cervical checks and haven’t progressed. I went from 0-10 holding my newborn baby within 6 hours!
