AIDS was first reported in the United States in 1981 and has since become a major worldwide epidemic. AIDS is the most advanced stage of infection caused by HIV. The names HIV and AIDS can be confusing because both terms describe the same disease. But most people who are HIV positive do not have AIDS.
The hospital usually class 'active' labour when you are 3 cms dilated, so if you were 4 cms then you will most likely be admitted onto the ward. I was around 5, had the kid 9 hours later! When I went in the hospital they put me straight to a bed! My water never broke either, they had to break it.
Depending on the drop that was used, this can be entirely normal. For most people, a standard dilation drop will wear off after about 4-6 hours. (ie- 1% tropicamide) Some pe â¦ ople have been known to stay dilated up to 48 hours. If a stronger drop (ie-1% cyclopentolate) was used, it can last even longer. It's really nothing to be concerned about unless you are experiencing reduced vision and eye pain or nausea with the dilation.
