Dilation and Cervix

Cydney

Just got home from my 39 week appointment and I'm only 1cm dilated and my cervix is "still really high" according to the doctor.

I asked the doctor about how if that really means anything since dilation can change at any time and she said "well, this isn't really a cervix that will go into labor anytime soon"

Anyone have any experience with having a high cervix this late into pregnancy? Or something similar? Feeling discouraged
