I had my hospital visit today & the OB did a stretch & sweep on me.

She said my cervix is open 2.5cm. Is that the same as being 2.5cm dialated or are they totally different things??

Probably a stupid question but I seriously dont know!

I had a quick search through BB but couldn't find an explanation.

Bubs head is almost "fully engaged". OB also said cervix isn't high.

With the information I've given you above do you think labour may be close or is there really no way to tell?

TIA
