Does anyone else feel this?

So I'm 38 weeks and a ftm. I've been having contractions all week. To mild to and inconsistent to really get overly excited about. But I've lost my mucus plug and I'm dilated to just a 1. So every now and the I can feel her pushi my against my cervix.  And honestly it feels like she's gonna pop her hand right on through and I'd be able to shake hands if I wanted. It is the weirdest feeling ever. I just spent 4 hrs yesterday at the hospital being monitored and talk of inducing me per dr orders after telling her that and having an ultrasound done. Has anyone else had this feeling?

Yea like she's stomping on my cervix and but I guess it would be more like a head butt. And then yea like a needling is being jabbed in there every now and then.

It's like when she moves she's gonna bounce right out. It's not a contraction it will happen while I'm already having one or shorty after. It's her moving and her head is on my cervix but it's just like I said an odd feeling.  Almost like she'll drop right out lol. And I have to ask to get checked otherwise they just assume I don't want it.
