I was in labor for almost 12 hours with no cervical change. Still dilated to a 4 like I had been for a week prior. I went and walked for half an hour and that's what jump started my cervix to dilate.

Yup and 28 hrs of labor that ended in a c-section

Yup! I had them the week I had him. They were 2-3 minutes apart strong enough for me to know for sure they were contractions but I was still able to walk/talk through them. I think it was like 4 days before I actually had him. I went to the hospital and was there for like 4 hours constant contractions, no cervix change so they sent me home
