I’m getting my first stretch & sweep on Tuesday and I was just wondering what kind of activity level is ideal after.

It seems like some say that one should rest rest and rest some more because a relaxed body is better, while others seems to prefer walking etc because it’ll make contractions start faster.

So those of you who’ve had a successful sweep what did you do?

Side question; does it hurt badly? I hated the checks during labour the last time, and I generally don’t like things inside me except for my boyfriend 🥴 is it much worse than the dilation checks?
