When did you start dilating and how long until labor

Lo • Mommy to the sweetest baby boy.

I’m 35 weeks exactly today and I went to the dr because I had an appt and I told her I felt like I was either leaking or had an increase in discharge or was peeing a little. And when she checked me out she told me I was 1cm dilated. When did you start dilating and how long until you had your baby?
