Memebrane sweep pros and cons? ADVICE PLEASE

Alina

I'm 39+3 and I'll have a membrane sweep next week at 40+2 to get things going maybe. Today someone just told me that the membrame sweep might make the following contractions a lot stronger and that it's better to wait for the baby to come when he is actually ready. I'm a bit scared now because I want a natural delivery in the birthing center and this is my first baby.

If one has a good or bad experience that you want to share...

Thank you all!
