what does thick mean?

Nikki • 25. Mom of two beauties.
Doctor said I'm still pretty "thick". Does that mean I'm not effaced? I didn't ask and I just stormed out the room cause I was so pissed of how rough she was. Why would a dilation check hurt so much?! She did say I'm almost 1cm.... hoping I was more at 37 weeks. Ugh. 🙄
