Membrane sweep at 37 weeks?
So this is my 4th kid and with my 3 others I was medically induced. This is our last kid and I mentioned to our dr that I wanted to go into labor without induction to have that experience finally plus it's easier and safer for baby. She said ok we will start to ripen your crevice with a membrane sweep at 37 weeks so you will have a better change of going into labor on your own. I'm 33 weeks now and the more I think about this the more I'm worried about doing it at 37 weeks. I heard it doesn't work unless your ready anyways and what not but before this kid I have never even heard of it or had it done. But I do think it's better than being medically induced. But should I start at 37 weeks? The way she said it made me believe she would do it at 37 and each week after till baby comes. Thoughts? Advice? Suggestions? I'm all ears!!! I just want what's safest for my daughter and I also don't want to be medically induced again. TIA
