oh I feel just like that too ugh. its awful but it means labor is soon! my Dr can feel the babies head through the cervix. just walk and I'd suggest using epo if Dr says OK.

Lol Google it there's videos and diagrams that can show you. make your hands are clean or use gloves is my preference. and only do it if u think there's a problem or something. if Ur cervix is low its easy but if Ur high its hard and u may not be able to reach it

my Dr says its safe and won't start labor just ripen my cervix but I told him I felt dilated and thin but he won't check. he doesn't really help me out too much he's always so busy but this Is my third baby and if I don't go into labor with in three weeks he's inducing me due to gd.
