A member asked:
I'm 37 weeks pregnant and my vaginal area has been in stabbing pain and felt very swollen these past few days, how do i know if i'm dilating ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not possible: Even a woman in labor cannot tell her cervix is dilating. The vaginal symptoms may be due to increased blood flow and congestion of the vessels; common in pregnancy.
