Has anyone checked their cervix at home?

my contractions are strong and consistent but I really do not want to go to the hospital till I'm dilating good because I really hate sitting there for hours when I could be comfortable at home!

we delivered my son at 34 weeks and the shots aren't working to stop it this one anymore so they are going to let her come when she comes now because she has no room

They aren't going to try to stop it anymore?? That's crazy. I've always heard that if they can stop it they will if you're not a few weeks farther than that. Unless it's a medical issue of course.

my doctor showed us how and said its safe as long as your water isn't broke and he's not like jamming his fingers in their. you can google and it will show you. 1 finger is 1cm 2 is between 2 and 3 just depending on your fingers

I was at the hospital 2 nights ago im already 60% effaced and they monitored us for ever but because she wasn't dilating...so I'm at a stuck because all they do is give fluids at this point they said they aren't going to try to stop her anymore because they have been for 8 weeks now

i wouldn't even attempt that even if i knew what i was doing... if u feel like you need to be checked just call your OB or go to the ER...

you need to go to the hospital if your 32 weeks and having constant strong contractions... that baby isn't developed enough to survive without medical intervention
