40 weeks 2cm dilated membrane sweep

Did anyone go into labor after a membrane sweep? How did it feel how long did it take? I was just checked today and I’m at 2 cm and got a sweep and I really hope it works 😭

I got my membranes swept twice and i didn’t go into labor at all. I asked to be induced. My son didn’t want to come out granted I had him 40w2d still never have labor on my own. It’s 50/50 with membrane sweeps

Mine worked the 2nd sweep after two days. But I helped it by doing what got my baby there in the first place🤭🤣

girlll if I weren’t a single mom I’d totally try this 😂😭 I honestly may ask to be induced at this point if this doesn’t work because I’m desperate 😭

I got my membranes swept at 3:30pm and went into labor at 3:30am 12 hours later. Woke up to crazy contractions. I was 39 weeks exactly.

Oh also i went and walked like a mile after my sweep appointment.

okay I walked up and down the stairs a few times after mine too so hopefully that helps I got mine done at 3 so fingers crossed 😭

I got a sweep, cramped about 40 minutes later and then contractions started. I got the sweep around 10-11am and gave birth at 10pm

I only did the induction so hubs could be present he was about to go out to sea

I wish this was me so far nothing has happened but I’m hoping some time today I will 🥴😂 oh wow so you definitely would’ve stayed pregnant if you could?

I got a membrane sweep and honestly wasn't bad at all. It took literally 5 seconds. I went into labour about 3 days later.

Yep, I would of but I didn’t want to be alone for weeks without help and I didn’t have anyone to drive me home if he did leave and you can’t drive but I ended up needing a c section so I would of been royally SOL

Oh my God, oh my God I hope this is not true!!!! I’m kind of scared

I’ve been throwing up and taking a shit all night!!! I just hope that it’s not what I think it is

Scan needed at 33 weeks

Hi ladies! I just had a midwife appointment (I am 33+5)..the midwife was different to my usual midwife. She's requested I have a scan within 72 hours as she said baby is measuring a little small, however, she did say that it's likely nothing to worry about and it's probably just her measuring me a bit different to my usual midwife. Has anyone else had this? Am a bit worried although babys heartbeat and movements are completely fine.

Finding out gender

Has anyone found out the gender at a private scan at 14 weeks? And has this been accurate?

I found out at 17 with my first but I know a scan place that offers from 14/15 weeks and I’m impatient 😂🥲

normal or infected?

5 weeks post c section , i went at the beginning of the week as my wound had opened completely different area to what’s leaking. was told it didn’t look infected. anyone know if this is normal coming off it, it’s only a little amount at a time

Hi

Hi guys so I’m 25 weeks today and I haven’t felt the baby kick at all yet at the scans she’s moving constantly that it’s hard to get the right measurements my first pregnancy was cryptic so I just want suggestions from one worried mother

Rolling milestone at 5 months - What’s typical ?

Good morning ladies,

My daughter will be 5 months old tomorrow, but there’s still no sign of her rolling. She does tummy time and loves lying on her mat, playing with hanging toys above her and to the sides, but she only lifts her legs and doesn’t seem interested in rolling or moving sideways yet.

Anyone else the same or have your babies already learnt how to roll yet ?

Thank you
