POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 9 m old boy3 years agoA. Effacement happens hand-in-hand with dilation, although effacement may begin first. As with dilation, it can take weeks, days, or hours to reach full effacement. Once your cervix is 100 percent effaced and 10 cm dilated, you're ready to start pushing your baby out into the world.
