I’ve been having cramping & really tight/ hard belly for a cpl days now, also bad lower back pain.. this is my first pregnancy so I’m not really sure if they are contractions or not. I read online that women stop gaining weight when they are close to labor & I haven’t gained anything for a cpl weeks now.. I have an appointment tomorrow & im suppose to get my cervix checked & im just curious with all of these symptoms if I where to be dilated any what would happen? Or could I possibly be dilated?
