Anybody else checking their own cervix?

Question

I'm 36 weeks and I just checked my own cervix. I'm about 2cm dilated. I know dilation is not an early sign of labor, but it does mean I am getting close! A few more weeks! I'm really excited.

Accepted Answer

I can barely wipe myself...

Answer

I tried, but I couldn't reach it. It was neat to feel his head, though. Made him wiggle.

Answer

Tried but couldn't reach it.

Answer

I can't even reach that far LOL but my doctor does weekly checks so im not too worried about it lol

I don't know how to tell any difference lol plus can't reach x

Answer

I've always heard it's not healthy to check yourself because the more hands down there the more chance of infection. My doctor thought I was dilating at 34 weeks but wouldn't check because of chance of infection.
