Went into my obgyn today for an appt & last time i was two cenimeters dialated & today my babys head is covering my cervix which means she couldnt check how much more i was dialated this time my question is what does it mean when babys head is covering the cervix? I know the doctor said he is very low

Mine has been the same way each time I get checked she can't reach my cervix because babys head is so low and the cervix is back behind it. She finally was able to reach yesterday I was having contractions, but hes been that low for a long time I don't think it means much except that they are in a good position for birth.

Maybe I am goofy but to me it sounds like really close to delivery that is the only time my doc was not able to check dialation was because baby was ready to enter

Ok...this I've never heard of either. How could dilation not be measured because of baby's head? anyone?
