I had my first sweep done yesterday no baby yet but have another booked in for tomorrow it wasn’t painful just uncomfortable I did bleed after so best thing to do is take a pad with you also just relax as much as you can - I was 1cm dialated and my midwife got me to 2cm did have contractions last night but they have since subsided. Good luck! x
Also due the 19th and was booked in for a sweep at 40+1, but baby is apparently measuring 8lbs already so having a sweep from 39. With my first, I had a sweep at 40+1 and she arrived within 12 hrs. Good luck!
@Nicole oh wow that’s amazing!! Fingers crossed for me!! ☺️ Thankyou so much! And congratulations on your little one 🩵
@Hollie ahh I’m so pleased it wasn’t painful, Thankyou I will definitely remember to do that! ☺️ that’s amazing, fingers crossed your little one arrives soon! Thankyou’ xx
@Tabby oh bless you, I am having a growth scan tomorrow as she appears to be measuring small again! I really hope I can be lucky and have the sweep and have her arrive so soon! Thankyou, and good luck to you for your little one also! Xx
I had a sweep on my due date with my first around 10am and he was born just after 9pm that same day! I was 2cm at the time of the sweep. Just relax as much as you can and breathe through it - good luck!
