Are you going to get a membrane sweep?

Question

Why or why not?

Answer

As long as my doctor will offer it, hell yeah!
My MIL went 8 or 9 days (can't remember) and she had been told 2 weeks before she was due that she should "start shaving her legs every day" because labor was going to happen very, very soon. But it stalled for 3 weeks! She had a membrane sweep and went into labor that night! I can't believe they even let her go that long since she had pre-eclampsia and had to be put on bed rest. But I guess that was 25 years ago lol

Answer

Did with my first and went into labor that night. I'd totally do it again!

Answer

No because I've heard its not %100 chance it works and it seems really uncomfortable. I'd rather get labor going other ways.

Answer

Probably not? I've heard it's "more painful than I imagined" 🤔

Answer

The only way I would allow it is if I had to be induced otherwise.

Answer

Nope. When little man is ready to come he'll come. Everyone I know went into labor almost immediately after having it done

Answer

If I need to be induced I'll insist on having this done first. Had it done with my first and started cramping immediately. My daughter was born 42 hours later. Waaayyyy better option than pitocin.

Answer

Both my sisters had it done and went into labor within a day! If i have not progressed at all by my last appointment (2 days before my due date) ill be asking to have it done!

Answer

I had it done with my last and I will never do it again! My cervix was back pretty far so it hurt really bad when she did it and it did absolutely nothing for me! So no way! It caused to much pain for it to do nothing for me!

Answer

I have no idea what this is.
