The bleeding is due to membrane sweep therefore you will feel pain and bleeding. 2cm dilation might be further up open in a week or two depends on progression. Just do lots of walking, up down stairs, squat should you feel the need to help speed up the dilation. You will feel like baby's head gonna come out too. If you're petite, you will feel like a penguim waddling 🤣 I experience both babies as I exceed EDD. Painful with back pain but worth the memories.
