Finally my doctor checked me!!!!

38w5d and this is the first time I got checked. She said my cervix is soft, I'm dilated 2-3cm but my cervix is still long? That last part I was kinda confused by? "Cervix is still long" ??? She on the brighter side she said labor&delivery should be shorter since I'm dilated this far already(this is baby #2). Hopefully baby Connor comes this week!!!!! Still can't believe it's AUGUST!!!!!!!
