Cervical checks

Did having a cervical check make you feel more reassured or disappointed in your progress? 39+5 today and just debating whether or not to get one done. Don’t want to be disappointed if I’m not dilated at all but still curious.

About to get my first one so I’ll let you know haha

I had my second cervix check yesterday (38 weeks) and I’m 2cm dilated, 50% effaced. I was 1cm dilated 2 weeks ago. I’m a little disappointed because I want this child out but same time, I’m chilling. It’s hubby who wants the child to come out already 🤣 My next appointment (39 weeks), I’m getting a membrane sweep.

At 37 weeks = 0cm dilated :( and I’m 38 weeks tomorrow so we will see!!

36 weeks and I’m 4cm dilated and 100% effaced and have been for a week now. I’m not disappointed or reassured because I know dilation doesn’t truly mean anything. You can be at a 2cm for weeks. It’ll happen when it happens

I was 50% effaced but not dilated at 36 weeks, I was the same at 38 weeks and that made me a little disappointed but I know it could change at anytime. Today at my 39 week appointment I am still only 50% effaced but finally 1 cm dilated so that gave me some encouragement. I’ve never gone into labor on my own so I’m just trying everything I can to get it going this time!

This time around my doctor hasn’t checked my cervix. So i have no clue where i am
