That means your babies station.  How far they are down in your pelvic area. Your babies still pretty far up there.

They started checking me last week at 36 weeks. I was checked again today at 37w3d and I'm 1cm dilated, 50% effaced and baby's head is at -2. Can anyone tell me what the -2 means?

I'm 37+4 and they won't check me either. My dr said it's pointless until 38 weeks. I've been having contractions since 34 weeks and they've stopped labor twice and still haven't checked me.

You can ask to be checked and they will. Or at least they are supposed to. At my 37 week appointment I requested her to check and she did. I was 70% effaced.
