This is probably nothing to worry about. I talked about it with DH and I think it's nothing to worry about. But I may need a reality check.
Background: Love my MWs, but they've shown signs of being a little overly concerned, IMO, about a few things. Previa at 12 weeks that they said wouldn't move (it did), worried about my iron (yes, it's low, it was last time, too, we're working on it). Anyway, I don't want to give them anything more to worry about.
I've had lots of cervical cramping this pg. Had it last time, too. I've already shared this with them, in passing. On Sunday I had a very faint pink spot on my undies. Wouldn't even have noticed it but I was trying to decide if that pair of undies on the floor was clean or not.
I've tried to check my cervix myself but it's up really high and it's totally mushy. It's so mushy I can barely tell where the os is. There wasn't any blood on the cervix that I could tell.
I haven't had an internal this whole pregnancy; I refused when the MWs did their physical. I'm sure they think I have some issue with an internal, but I don't. I just refused it because of the complete previa (read that internals were contraindicated except in emergencies), and because I just didn't think it was neccesary. I also didn't have one last pg until I was well into labor and had been for a few hours.
So, I'm fine to not worry about the tiny spot of blood (and no, there had been no BD-ing, sadly) or the cervical cramping, right? Even if I have some dilation at 31 weeks, it means nothing bad for sure, right?
I just don't want to ask the MWs for an internal and find out I've got some little dilation and have them get all freaked out.
I truly think that since I have all the baby's things ready and we're just in the waiting game that I'm just looking for things to blow out of proportion.
