Head very low into pelvis but cervix far back?

I find it all so confusing! I had a sweep today, at 39+1, she said similar with regards to the head being low down but said my cervix was 'quite thick and far back'. When I go for a smear test I have to clench my fists and use them to kind of prop up my bum (if that makes sense!) so I did that, she said she was able to 'pull the cervix forward' and said it was a good place to start to hopefully get things going 🤷🏻‍♀️

Following!

Same!!! 40+3 now, currently in the hospital since Monday for reduced movements. Had 2 sweeps prior which didn't work. Got induced with the pessary and Tuesday and it failed. Had the pessary again today and tbh I doubt it's going to work!!! lol😂😂 they couldn't break my water on Wednesday as they said I am not dilated enough. I am so so so tired. I don't see me having my baby anytime soon.🥹🥹🥹🥹. Hang in there mama❤️

Same here 40+1 and had my last midwife appointment. I was scared of the sweep as she was not sure if it will start labour or not hence i didnt opt it. Waiting for baby and also to get induced on 27th Nov

I am the same, I was due on the 15th and tired two sweeps so far but neither worked as my cervix is closed and too far back. I am booked for an induction Monday, I’m gutted😔

I had exactly the same response from my midwife yesterday - she eventually managed to reach my cervix but said it was closed so not a lot she could do. It’s because baby has turned so she’s taken my cervix with her 😂 lots of upright posture and bouncing on your ball if you’ve got one 👍🏻 xx

I had a sweep yesterday too and found what she said so confusing. She was using a volcano analogy and it went totally over my head but the gist was it's open as much as a pea so very little she can do and not to expect his arrival anytime soon. Booked for another sweep on Monday and Wednesday failing that 😖 my son was 2 weeks early so I really wasn't expecting to need this kind of patience!

Just to update my comment from yesterday, I had my little boy last night so I wouldn’t worry too much about being dilated etc xx
