Hi all I am 39+5 and had stretch and sweep this morning :) now having period pains etc the midwife said my cervix was 1.5cm and I was 1cm dilated.
What does the 1.5cm cervix mean it is also soft and central?

Thanks in advance

Not long now! Smile

A normal cervix in pregnancy should be about 4mm I think, and it will shorten generally (efface) before dialating. Central also good.

Good luck!
