I'm Currently Feeling:  | Sweep
I went for my sweep today... Thanks Layla your advice was spot on. It didnt hurt, however boy was it uncomfortable...
The doctor said she beleives that the cervix is what they call favorable and that im currently 2cm dialated but her head is still very high up and needs to drop.
They have arranged for another sweep Monday if I have no delivered then and advised that failing all my Induction will most likely to be a week today so next wednesday but the MW will confirm this with me on Monday.
However they did say that if i do have to be induced its only likely that they will only break my waters as they think everything else will happen on its own accord after having waters broken...
Well... Either this way or that way lets hope something might now start to happen.
Xx |

| glad it went ok, everything sounds promising.
If you are induced its best for them to break your waters rather than give you drugs.
So Monday is the next deadline date for you then, hopefuly this sweep will work and you will go in to labour before then

I'm Currently Feeling: | Ive got like period cramps, they started as she was doing the internal and not gone yet... Im guessing its just normal, they have eased alot since she started doing the internal.
Suppose there bound to be there though having someone trying to stretch the cervix??
