Hi girls,
Had my sweep yesterday (40 weeks exact). Was just a little uncomfortable and felt crampy soon after. Now back to waiting This is my first and im really getting antsy now. How much longer?
Im 37 + 4 days and had membrane sweep i was told i had to wait 72 hours for another sweep which will be done at home as cervixs is hard. Just wanted to ask has any one with a hard cervix gone into Labour witg first sweep. If not how many did tgey have be4 going inuo labour.
I had my sweep at 40 weeks, cervix hard, maybe 1cm dilated. Had loads of cramps that day, lost my plug the next day and had baby at 40+6. Im not convinced it was the sweep that made my waters go but I think it did help start the process In some way
