Overdue + closed cervix

Just been to see my midwife and she attempted a stretch n sweep but said she couldnt as my cervix is still totally closed and posterior. Im 40+5 and was hoping Id have progressed at least a little bit! Trying not to get disheartened though but its hard not to feel disappointed or that your body doesnt work properly.

Anyone else having these problems? Xx
