Cervical check today 38 weeks and 5 days!

Ashley

So I had my cervix checked today which was actually very uncomfortable and painful for me. She said I was still thinning out and I’m about to 1cm dilated, which is some progress from last week. I have noticed some light cramping and spotting. She also said my babies head is pretty low as well. Could this be a sign of labor about to start or not really? Haha I just want her to come out already!

I also asked about being induced possibly soon if she doesn’t come soon, but since I will be trying for a VBAC my doctor likes for cases like this for labor to start on it’s own. Anyone have any similar situations or have experienced this?
