40 weeks and had a sweep! Advice?

Phoebe

So I’m due today...had no signs from bubba that he wants to come out, had to ask my midwife for a sweep due to having a broken bone in my back and my bump being unbearable to carry! So, the sweep KILLED me, I was in tears but she said she felt the little ones head and my cervix is soft and I’m dilated...I don’t really get what any of this means, anyone help me out with what all of that means??
