Sweep!
Hi,
I had a sweep performed yesterday morning and was hoping that something might have happened by now.
Wondering if anyone has had a successful sweep and how long afterwards labour started?

i had that at around 12 midday and my little boy was born that night at 1.40am.
i tried everything to get things moving along and i can honestly say that a proper good sweep is the only thing that worked.
good luck xx
Am on the Jan boards so you might have already read this. I had a sweep on Tuesday, which was a bit uncomfortable but absolutely fine. However, nothing happened at all. I think she managed to sretch me to 1cm though. So, had another one today in hospital and was extremely painful and thought wa going to scream at one point (was a baby and cried). Husband was v upset by it as he could hear but not see. I have no hope that it will work though. I think it works for about 50% of people..I know people who have had their baby the next day and then people who have had two or more and nothing. Think if going to work will be in 48 hrs. good luck to us both!!
had been induced for my previous 3 labours, so it was a wonderful feeling to go into labour at home. hope this helps x
