    A question about my cervix - TMI

    I'm 27 weeks today. I had an appointment with my midwife yesterday and she said baby is head down but not yet engaged. This evening I felt some pressure in my vagina (like I felt with my DS when he was engaged) and thought I'd see if I could feel what the pressure was. I felt my cervix and it is very soft and lower than it has been. It feels like lips (and slightly more open than normal) rather than a 'nose' like it used to.
    Is this normal at 27 weeks? I do get lots of BH and some more painful cramps that come and go but nothing different to my other pregnancies.
    Do you think it's anything I should be concerned about?

    Thanks in advance

    When's your next appt? It's certainly something I'd keep an eye on although some people can be a few cms dialated for weeks.
    I was told yesterday morning about 1am I wasn't in labour cervix was high and closed etc only for 4 hours later be 4cms dialated and having my boys.
    Moral to that story: trust YOUR body!

    If you feel it's something to be concerned about visit your dr. Sending hugs and fingers crossed it's nothing and bub keeps baking
