Here it's 4CM.  But they also watch other factors.  They might NOT check you just because some doctors think that can move things along sooner.  It all depends on your doctor.

I've been checked weekly since 32 weeks but I have a history of going post term =\ so might not be much help.  You can ask and they can check if they are comfortable.

I was checked from 35w on with my daughter. With my son, the hospital checked me at 34w due to preterm labor issues. I was 1cm. I was checked again by my dr at 35w6d and was 3cm. I have birth at 36w1d.

It could really go either way ya know. Either way you will be checked in the next couple of weeks. And it's uncomfortable, I had a hard time relaxing though which made it more uncomfortable. I got check because they thought I may have been going into preterm labor but I was dilated one bit.

Wow. Most drs won't check for dilation until you are about 37 weeks, reason being is that the checking of your cervix can induce labor. I would wait to ask your dr until you are farther along.
