To sweep or not to sweep? Lol

Ab

Really undecided. I’m 41+3 and not much is happening at all. Few twinges here and there but not had BH or any sort of contractions since Monday.

I am booked for a sweep at my routine apt, but really reconsidering. I hate examinations and this week I’ve already had to go for a swab, plus due to be induced Saturday so will of course be poked and prodded throughout that process too.

What are everyone else’s experiences? Would you recommend? Lots of my friends say it was ineffective and painful but equally other people say it was worth it 🤷🏻‍♀️
