Mine starts around 35 weeks, I think, if needed. I don't remember on the speculum... but I'll find out in a few weeks! [ Reply | More ]

36 weeks for me, no speculum, you get a swab for the group b strep the first exam, then they just check your cervix by feeling it. [ Reply | More ]

Thanks. I had to have a speculum exam a few weeks ago and it was outrageously painful so I'm paranoid that they use a speculum for the internals. [ Reply | More ]

Mine started around 37 weeks. He did not use a speculum. I believe it's just to feel if you are dialating. [ Reply | More ]

Mine waits until 38 weeks if this is your first baby. I was 2 cm when she checked and baby came three days later. [ Reply | More ]
