i think I'm in labor:/

Ok so this is my 3rd child but first boy, he never stops moving but I'm having lots of pain in my pelvic area.  When your in labor does the baby still seem to move? I'm 38+1 and my doctor has yet to check if I'm dilated even though I've been going weekly for the past 3 wks, is that weird?

Not all doctors check for dilation, especially if it is not your first. Your baby can remain active during labor, usually becoming less active when your water breaks.
