I'm Currently Feeling:  | Sweep @ 38+4 Any ideas???
Well i went for my 38 week appt with my consultant to discuss delivery as i had an emergency section with my daughter as i didnt dilate more than 2cm afta bein induced..
...She decided to examine me and found that im 1cm dilated and gave me a sweep!! His head is now 4/5ths engaged (but wasnt 2 days ago wen i saw mw) I was havin a few pains last night but they stopped but i went for a really long walk today to see if this helped things along!! After telling me that i was 1cm dilated though she has booked me in for induction on 12th sept if he hasnt arrived. She told me he is gonna be a big baby so why leave me so long 
Has anyone else had this from a sweep and not gone into labour soon after???

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I had one done at 10 am yesterday, it's now been 33hours since. They give you up to 48 before they decide it was unsucessful. But I've been having tons of pink/bloody discharge since it was done. And still getting it now. I was 2cm dilated. |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I had mine done at 2pm on Tuesday and nothing happened following mine. I was 2cm dilated and my MW said my sweep was performed with ease but mine was unsuccessful.
Hopefully yours will work for you, good luck  |
