i'm a little confused?
i'm 37 weeks, and had my doctors appointment yesterday. she checked my cervix, and said i'm still at 1cm, but the baby has dropped and is at -1 station. she said my cervix is still high, and am not yet effaced. i thought that when you start to dilate and the baby drops, it helps thin your cervix. i'm just a little confused, and wonder if this has happened to anyone else. thanks in advance!
i'm not wondering how much time i have untill i go into labor. i'm just confused by the fact that the baby has dropped, i've started to dilate, but yet i have no effacement.
