cervix is closed my OB checked me today

kathryn • Mama bear to Jaxson Cayde 💙Born April 9th 💙

So I’m still closed at 38 weeks and 3 days she wants to induce me next week what can I do to get cervix to open !?

Also After she checked is there anyway I can start going into labor ? She asked if I wanted a sweep done but apparently you can’t have a sweep done when cervix is closed ..? But she did check but maybe she just didn’t get that far I still have had a check done at least and wondering if any possibility that it will put me into labor ?

Thank you :)
