Can i go into labor at 18 weeks?
Labor usually starts within 2 weeks of (before or after) the estimated date of delivery. Exactly what causes labor to start is unknown. Toward the end of pregnancy (after 36 weeks), a doctor examines the cervix to try to predict when labor will start. On average, labor lasts 12 to 18 hours in a woman's first pregnancy and tends to be shorter, averaging 6 to 8 hours.

About Labor
Labor is the strenuous process a mother goes through to give birth to a child. The process is divided into stages; during each stage, the cervix opens wider and contractions happen more frequently. In the final stage, the mother must help push the baby out.
