would my dr...

do you think my dr would check my cervix if i asked him too. just to check and make sure nothing is going on yet??..

How many weeks are you? And it wouldn't matter much unless you are contracting 3-5 minutes apart or your water broke. I went in for my induction and was dilated 4.5 cm. I started dilating at 36 weeks.

im 31 weeks today and just was kinda worried about early labor.

Checking can irritate the cervix and cause dilation/contractions. That's why docs don't check til 36-37w

oh i didnt know that. ty

Also dilation and effacement means nothing when it comes to labor!

i feel like a dummy... lol but thank you ladies for all the info  

don't feel like a dummy I didn't know this until I was pregnant with my first and my doctor told me

I told my dr about the pressure I was feeling and he did do a quick check on things for me. I was 36 weeks, turns out with the more pregnancies you have the sooner you feel all the yucky stuff you do normally at the end lol
