8 days overdue - 3 sweeps - 1/5 engaged but head not flat..

Hey ladies

So 8 days overdue any advice on my latest stats please???

another sweep - hopefully 3rd time lucky!! She said things are starting to happen.... 2cm dilated and soft cervix. Even tho babys head is engaged the head is not positioned flat against my cervix so it's still thick!! that's just the final bit of constant pressure that should get things moving! .......so the waiting continues!! But baby is happy and she thinks about 8.4lb.

Been about 8 hours since sweep a bit tender as she really went for it but nothing else apart from bleeding which has more or less stopped now.

anything I can do to help head level out!!???

Thank you in advance xxxxxxx

Hey hun, try walking loads or bouncing on a birthing ball to see if that gets anything going. I really feel for you and I'm not overdue yet x

Thank you been rocking on all fours - bouncing on a ball and doing half hour walks most days that's all I can manage with my bladder and feet ha ha.

will keep on bouncing good luck wishes to
You XX

yep stay upright in the daytime no leaning back into the sofa sit backwards on a chair leaning forwards then at night try to rest and sleep
