UK dilation checks?

[lucyalexis]

Hiya, I've seen quite a few posts of women getting checked and told they are dilated towards the end of the pregnancy, is this the case for UK mum's? My midwife hasn't mentioned it as being something to expect. I'm 38 weeks on Monday x

I've had 3 normal births they won't check unless your in labour or over due.

I'm 36 +4 and from the UK, not been checked yet but my midwife did say that unless I feel there's something wrong then I won't be checked until I'm in labour
