Thanks ladies. Great feedback. & yes, if I don't go into labor before my next apmnt, I'll definitely be asking. By then I'll be 39 weeks anyway so I'm sure my doctor will agree to it.

On your next appointment just ask and I'm sure he will. He will do it when he checks for dilation,  takes like 3 seconds. Good luck

Interesting. I'm 38w 4d & 2 cm dialated. Got admitted into the hospital earlier today bcus I thought my water had broken, turned out it didnt, just the baby's head dropping low. Unfortunately I was sent home, contactions weren't close enough.

I got mine at 38 weeks, but I don't think they will do it unless you are at least 2 cm dilated.
