Cervical checks and csection

So I’m 37+3 and had my weekly appt today. I told my dr how much pain I’ve been in with my bones feeling like they’re breaking (pelvis) and so much pressure feeling like she’s going to fall out. And she’s just was like well that’s normal. Clearly this is my 4th. But I haven’t gotten a cervical check yet. Is this normal? I can’t afford to go into labor and she knows this.. I’m just in awe at how non chalant she was about it.
