she hasnt checked you at all? i dont think they have to.. did you tell her that youre having pressure and discharge tell her that you would like to be checked or go to l&d and have them check you! thats what i would do! hope this helps!!!
I thought so..i been tellin her bout my pain nd discharge but still nothing my next appoi-tments on monday so im for sure telling her to check me!!! Tnkz ladiez
Some don't check. Because even if you're dialated, it still doesn't really predict when you go to labor. You can be dialated 2-3 cm & stay that way for weeks.
I can tell you after the experience I had yesterday, not all drs are gentle, take their time and make sure not to hurt you. Yesterday I had one nurse who ead nice and gentle and tried to strip my membranes to help me along. She tried to make it not hurt like hell. Now she was a night nurse at the end of her shift, so I didn't get to have her te whole time I was in l&d. The day nurse was very rough and didn't bother to try and make it something non-traumatic. Same with the dr I thought I would like. And they all kep checkin me over and over. Mind you I was in the hospital from 5 to 8...three hours. And I got checked no less than 10 times. The night nurse only checked me twice. I've had a baby before in a different hospital and with a different dr and can tell you that my experiences with my first born was MUCH better han this time. I ended up spotting and feeling like they had put all my inner lady parts in a meat grinder. Count yoursel lucky my dear. Not all drs are gentle and same with nurses. Doesn't even matter if they are man or woman (you would think a woman would be more gentle because she's been there...NOPE!!!). Plus it doesn't mean much unless you are in labor, true labor or false.
@mama_kat my trip to l&d last Monday, the dr checked my cervix twice! I will NEVER ask for it to be checked, cause he literally did SHOVE his fingers up there. I cried out loud both times in OBVIOUS pain.
My doc doesn't check until after due date has passed. His words why when I asked? "I don't like to put my girls through that." Awww. I was like ok crossing my fingers that he will be the one on call when I'm delivering....
