I am 39 weeks, was sent home from the hospital this am. The docs told me the cervix was behind the baby's head. What does this mean? Is it normal or a complication? :?:

Everything should be okay hun.. Did they say anything to you about it. The only comp. That it could lead is that the baby doesnt engage his/her head and they will have to do a c section, but the sounds of it everything will be fine.
