Labour has not started.
Is it your first pregnancy or second?
In the first pregnancy both, external and internal os are closed. In the second Pregnancy (especially if the lady had a normal delivery earlier) , the external os may be open.
You will surely get 10 days, maybe even more time if you don't have an elective Caesarean.
