1cm dilated - 38 weeks

I was 1cm Friday morning at 4am, delivered Saturday morning 8am

Is it normal to have your cervix checked if not in labour? I've never had mine examined until I was in active labour 😅

I was just under 3 cm dilated practically my entire 3rd trimester. Since it was my first pregnancy and things weren't progressing, my Dr said that there was a very high chance that I would need to be induced. 5 days before my due date and scheduled induction, I had a membrane sweep and went into labor early the next morning.

I was 1cm with my first for two weeks and was induced at 40w1d (should have waited baby and my body were not ready)
My second I wasn't even 1cm at 41w so I was induced and had a VBAC.
Honestly you can sit at 1-3cm for weeks and not go into full labor. You're not full term yet so just enjoy baby cooking for a little longer. A lot of brain development occurs in the last 4 weeks of pregnancy.

for me I was being pressured into having an induction and upon me refusing many times I agreed to have a sweep and that’s where I found out I was 2cm, so in that scenario I’m assuming maybe xx

I just had my cervix checked today I’m 37 weeks and 2 days pregnant and I’m still experiencing pressure and cramping. This too is my first pregnancy so I’m hoping he will stay in a lil bit longer until I get induced.

I was 1 cm dilated at 39 weeks with my first. Had to get induced due to BP and the induction failed. This time I'm already 1 cm at 36 weeks. No sign of labor at all.
