Should I get membrane sweep at 39+3 weeks?

Question

I’m only asking this because I’m not sure if it even helps anything. With my first pregnancy my doctor did this 3 times from 39-41 weeks. I ended up being induced and had my son at 41+3 weeks
I’m almost 39 weeks with my second and my doctor gave me the option of getting it done at my next appointment. 
I just don’t see the point if it didn’t help me, I know every pregnancy is different but I’d like some personal experiences or your view on this

Answer

I got it done 3 days before my due date, water broke 2 days after and my little girl was born on her due date 😊

Answer

I got it done and went into labor the following night and baby was born the next morning but also in the same day I did a million squares walked a lot ate a huge spicy burger deans red leaf tea then took a relaxing bath with lilac scent lol so idk if it was the combo of all or a certain one. I googled all ways to get labor going and tried them all bc I was so done! Good luck!! Sexy time is helpful too helps get contractions going :)

Answer

I’m in the same camp as you.  Sweeps did nothing for my first two pregnancies.  I declined with my third and he was born earlier than the other two, but I was really sick the week before he was born.  I think the sickness helped.
