Google Bishop Score: The answer to your question depends on a number of factors: Is this your first baby? What is your cervical dilation, effacement, consistency, position and fetal station? These factors have been put into a scoring system called the "Bishop Score". Your risk of a c/section goes up if the bishop score is low. For example, a high, long, hard, posterior, undilated cervix has a high risk of C/S
