4cm dilated

KB

Dilation question. I am 37 weeks with baby#2 and went into l&d two days ago when I woke up and saw I was bleeding. The doctor checked me and said I am 4cm dilated - 90% effaced and -2. I know I can sit at 4cm for a while. Were any of you told you were that far dilated? How long did it last until you went into labor? Two nights ago I had Braxton Hicks all night but nothing super painful and of course last night had nothing.
