When I go back to the docs I will be almost 32 weeks I will be 31 and 6 days will they check to see if I am dialated ? And if not when do they usually start doing that?? :confused:

My doc did not start checking to see if I was dilated until I was about 36 weeks. But all doctors are different. Just so you know, I was 1.5 cm at 36 weeks, and the same at 37 weeks, even though you may begin to dilate, that doesn't mean that you will go into labor soon, and if you are anything like me by 34 weeks I was wishing for the baby to come out ASAP. I ended up having a c-section at 38 weeks, and I was still only 1.5 cm dilated :) Good luck!

Thank you yeah I know with my first son at 34 weeks it was 2 cm dialted but they are supposed to take the baby at 36 weeks so I was wondering when they will start checking to see if I am dialted

My doctor didn't check me until I was 38 weeks almost 39 weeks. She only checked me then because I asked her to. I was beginning to feel pressure and was hoping it was because the baby had dropped. When she checked me I was 3cm dilated then 2 days after being checked I went into labor.
Ask your doctor when you go into your appointment. Sometimes they don't want to check you too early because it can cause you to dilate even more is what my doctor told me. Your doctor might want to wait until at least 36 or 37 weeks when the baby is considered full term unless you have had previous pregnancies when you when into labor early.

Most start checking around 36 weeks, give or take a week. If you feel like you are feeling pressure or just feel like you need to be checked, you can always ask and they will usually check you.

I was checked every week about a month before I was due.

I am 39 weeks and went and seen my doctor today and he wouldn't check me... he said maybe next week even though I have been getting a lot of pressure since I was 36 weeks... I am pregnant with my fourth child and my other doctor started checking me when I was 36 weeks with my other pregnancies...
