Hello all. I'm currently 24 weeks and 6 days pregnant. Been having contraction pains for 2 weeks now midwife did a ffn test which came back positive had steroid injections for lungs and brain for baby and home now with pain killers for contractions. I thought tonight I'd have a check at my cervix I could fit just over my fingertip inside but it felt tight at the top still. Do you think this is starting to dilate or not ?
Thanks in advance

I don’t know but if you’re worried, maybe give maternity assessment a call? There might be something they can do. Hope you’re ok Flowers

If you're having contractions and your test came back positive then it will be starting to dilate. It sounds like you might be 1cm maybe? If you're worried 100% go to triage. Especially considering your circumstances! Good luck Thanks
