How does the blue line on your back tell you how many centimeters dilated you are?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not true: There is no line on your back or any other part of your body that tells you what the cervix is dilated. The only way to know how many centimeters dilated a cervix is is to manually check the cervix
