Would you ask for a sweep at 38+4?

Question

Answer

I would only get one if you are at least 3 cm dilated! They really don’t work before then and aren’t worth the pain! And for those who say they aren’t painful, then yours wasn’t done well enough lol my midwife literally said “scoot down more, you’re going to run away from me” when she did mine 😳 but baby was born less than a day later!

Answer

currently 38+3 and waiting to get one

Answer

I’m currently 37 and 4, 2-3 centimeters dilated and 70% effaced. I asked my dr for a sweep yesterday at my appt and she wouldn’t do it. She did say she would do it next week at my appt when I am 38 and 3. I will definitely be getting it done!
