Anyone had successful pessary when their cervix was still far/posterior?
Positive stories pleaseeeee! Meant to have mine on friday, I will be 41 weeks then but today they tried to give me a sweep and couldnt because my cervix is still posterior/far.
Me! I had an induction with one last year. Had 2 6hr ones started at .5 cm and ended at 2.5 cm had my waters broken then and then dialated all on my own after that. Was super painful during the insertion as it was so far back but otherwise went well. Contractions went 0-10000 about 2 hrs into the second pessary and caught me off guard but otherwise it was a ok experience. Needed forceps but that was because baby was having trouble recovering from contractions after 8cm but by that time I was labouring all on my own so it was likely due to my epidural and not the pessary.
