I checked my own cervix...

Disclaimer: I talked to my personal mid-wife nurse that is giving through my insurance. The nurse said it’s okay as long as I know what I am doing and I don’t hurt myself.

I am 35.5 weeks pregnant. I am due April 23rd.

My doctor will induce me on April 16th, just because it’s safe and baby is full term.

This is my 4th pregnancy. I know how to check my own cervix, so I did. I googled what I think my results were and I think I’m 2 and one-half cm to 3 cm dilated. I am also having pain all day on my lower abdominal area but they’re not cramps. Has anyone done this before? Does anyone feel the same as I?
