Babynayaka If you googled it then you must have seen the study done that showed a positive correlation between dilation and the purple line in a statistically significant number of mothers (albeit it was a small sample size). It honestly makes sense but clearly doesn't happen with all women and also it didn't happen as much in induced women.
I totally looked myself last night and there is probably a 6 inch purple line there.but I have no clue what it looked like before or what my dilation status is. I'm hoping it portends that I'm already 5cm and the baby will slide right out 5 mins after I get to the hospital, haha; ). Scalesbaby Basically, the theory is that starting at 3-4cm of dilation, a dark purple/red lines appears in your buttcrack. The further along you are in dilation, the higher the line extends.
So, when you're at a full 10cm, the line is all the way up to the highest point of the crack. For some women though, it doesn't show up until 6-7cm, at least not enough to tell that it's THE line. I found a link that shows some photos as well as explaining it. I thought I'd explain it first in case someone didn't want to read the link!
It's pretty interesting! I'm actually going to check myself in a bit when I get some alone time. I can't exactly do a buttcrack-check with a toddler running everywhere! Thanks for the info! Scalesbaby As of Thurs, I was dilated 3cm and effaced 50%. I was able to check to see if this line is there. And lo and behold, there it is!
Right inside my buttcrack! Lol it looks like it's about 2-3 inches long, maybe. It was a little hard to measure! But, yep, it's there! I was having pretty major contractions for the past 2 nights, but nothing so major that I KNEW it was time. My dr said something about the contractions and dilation being linked so maybe these past few nights of contractions have progressed the dilation?
Anyone else who has been confirmed dilating checked for this line?
