Most likely your baby will be coming within the next two weeks.
 
It's not uncommon to be 3cm dilated for a few weeks.  What I, as a labor and delivery nurse, look for are the regular contractions.  Are you having any?  As well as cervical change.
 
Are you drinking a lot of water?
 
Walk a lot.  Walking can cause cervical change.  Nipple stimulation can cause contractions to begin.

I have closed your other thread as it is basically the same as this.  It's best to keep all inquiries regarding the same thing all in one thread.  ;)

You could go into labor tomorrow or not until early March.  Try your best to enjoy the rest of your pregnancy... not much longer... :)
