40+6 weeks, 1/5 palpable but high cervix?

I'm 40+6 and had a midwife appointment today where she tried to do a sweep.
The midwife said the head is 1/5 palpable and really far down but said she could only just touch my cervix because it's too high and not soft enough. Therefore I never really got a sweep properly.
She said that she thought that I wouldn't go into labour before my induction that they've booked for Monday night.
Has anyone been told the same thing? What happened in the end? I really want to avoid being induced/waiting until Monday if I can.
I've been on the raspberry leaf tea for a couple of weeks now but I'm going to increase my intake and get on the pineapple. Are there any other ways to get the cervix lower?

Any help/advice would be appreciated!
