Just had a sweep and notes read:

cx slightly posterior (I presume this is cervix, its always like that, they can never find it for a smear)
Multip os admits fingertip (although she said 1-2)
membranes intact
pp ceph -2 to ishroid spines

Just the last bit really, no idea what thats about.
She said babys head is 3/5 engaged but when she did the sweep it felt a bit high
Also is it fairly normal to be dilated 1-2cm on 3rd baby, or is it something to be excited about?

No and am quite upset about things this morning sad (see other thread in pregnancy)

But on the plus side I did lose my show this morning, never had this after sweep with ds, it was a huge great big slimy monster, Ive never seen anything quite like it, so hoping this is a good sign that things are moving smile

Jackbaby wasn't posterior but his head got stuck crookedly when my waters went so I had the most horrendous back labour. I feel your pain!!!
Apparently being on your hands and knees helps baby's heaviest part (his back) to swing around so I tried spending a lot of time in that position. Wrists got sore though.

Good luck and hope things get going soon!

thank you again jacksmama. I went to bed at 8pm and the contractions tailed off. Have had nothing since sad Still losing some show, although not much.
Baby was LOA at midwife appointment but he's wriggling today so seems to be swinging back and forth. He was back 2 back at one point but I have made an effort to not slouch in chairs and spend most of the time on my swiss ball so hoping he wont swing back as my 2 previous babys gave me a lot a backache during labour depsite them not actually being posterior

You're welcome.
Back ache any better? When the baby's head descends, it can press on the sacral nerves, and how badly it presses on them depends on the presentation - back-to-back (occiput posterior) hurts a lot more than when baby's back is to your front (occiput posterior). If baby is currently posterior, don't let that scare you - most of them shift when labour starts.
