Same! But you could be close to dilation. I was 37 weeks and 1 cm dilated at my appt At first, Dr thought baby had a ways to go when looking at ultrasound. Then he felt in there and was like oh wow you’re actually dilating. Those contractions have been doing something..
Do the doctors automatically check once you get so far along or do you have to ask them to
@Michaela at 36 weeks mine offered to check mine. They told me my dilation, effacement, and station. After 36 weeks, my OB wanted to see me weekly. At each week, you can have your cervix checked.
I’ve felt the same but as of 38 weeks cervix was closed when they did a check. I’m feeling more and more pressure as time goes on but I’m not doing another check until I’m in the hospital.
I thought the same and had my appointment today same weeks and days as you but I’m not dialated at all it’s just baby is very low in my case ..
