[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think a cervical check is a risk for jump starting labor. However it also only shows a small part of the picture. If you are dilated or effaced, that won't really predict when you go into labor. Some women walk around dilated for a long time. So I'd ask him what he hopes to learn from the check and how it would change your treatment plan.[/quote] Thank you! I had us with my second (for other reasons) and my cervix was closed and long until the 39th weeks... I never went into labor. My first I went to 41+3 and was induced and ended up with aC section so the ob thinks tht if my cervix is long and closed it’s a good indication that I will make it again to the C section date. I know it’s not a guarantee... I just don’t understand why doctors here (in the US) are so much against us. [/quote]
