I am 38+2 and was just scheduled to be induced. I got my membranes swept at 1cm dilated, 50% effaced and -4 fetal station. He said it may or may not work based on how high baby is but that i was free to try whatever to avoid induction in the hospital. Ive had some BH and cramping, had some mucus discharge since the sweep. The sweep was 9:10 or around then 12/13/2021.

I already tried the midwives brew with no success I had some consistent contractions and no dilation. I decided to try again with the sweep to see of that helps. Just finished the brew at 5:46 pm 12/13/2021. Im going to let it settle and bounce on the ball for a little while while my fiancé works on NFT stuff. I will update this later on if theres any progress.

UPDATE: 7:26pm, I havent even bounced on the ball yet just organized clothes for him that are gonna be too big for him and there is so much pelvic pressure and definitely some bearable contractions, but not super close together yet.

Update: 11:08pm, the contractions did taper off, I fell asleep doing the second exercise of the miles circut (that one is so comfortable). However as soon as I got up the cramping started again and BH. Baby has dropped lower and i feel sharp pain and pressure on my cervix. It feels like its coming soon but I don’t wanna get my hopes up lol.
