ladies who were induced at 39 weeks...

If you knew you'd be induced way ahead of time..Did they start checking to see if you were dilated sooner in your weekly appointments?? 
Ive known it getting induced for weeks now..I'm 34 weeks today and my first weekly appointment is the 28th..so I only have 5 weeks left..will they start checking?!
--I'm getting induced for a medical concern
