Can anyone help explain this please?

5/5 engaged means the head isn’t in the pelvis at all, all of the head can be felt above the pelvic brim and -3 means the head is still high/ free floating. Your cervix is still at the back, it needs to come forward for labour.

Hope this helps. It doesn’t really mean anything though you can go from nothing to birth in hours or be 3cm for weeks x

Thank you :)
That makes sense- her head kept moving away from the midwife when she was doing the sweep- little madam is way too comfortable I think
Hoping she comes before the 13th- we have a c-section booked for the 14th but really want to avoid that due to trauma from the last c-section and this being our last baby I really want to try natural- also my 30th Birthday is the 15th May🤣 xx
