I went in to the hospital with regular contractions and the DR checked me then with out permission he stretched my cervix to 2 cm from one.
I was wondering if he was aloud to do this or if it was not aloud to be done
if it was dangerous please tell me what the dangers are and if they will harm the baby (this is now 5 days after this was done and I have been told by family that it is malpractice and i am worried for my unborn baby)
i am 38weeks and been in early labor for 5 days now
please I need proper information
I am real worried!!

I am sorry, but the members of allnurses.com cannot offer the medical or legal advice that you require.
You need to pose your questions/concerns to your OB or seek another medical opinion.
We do wish you well and hope you have a safe delivery and a very healthy and happy baby. Good luck!!!
