I was about 1 cm from 38 weeks on </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/2-39wks-low-head-posterior-cervix-barely-dilated#post-2186254 Thu, 21 May 2015 16:04:15 +0000 andthewildones 2186254@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>any experience out there with a second babe laying low since early on (see: tons of pelvic pressure!) but the cervix remaining posterior and barely dilated? "half a centimeter" is what i was just told. as much as i want DS to come when he's good and ready, this was a little frustrating. by 39wks i would think the head being engaged since 34 weeks would make for some solid progress in these final weeks. she really had to dig back to reach my cervix and i'm wondering also if the head being in front of the cervix could be why with so much pressure and pain there has been so little dilating? </p> <p>any information or experience or advice would be appreciated! thanks for letting me get that off my chest. :bummed: </p>
