got a midwife appointment today at home. I'm going to ask if I can have a membrane sweep earlier than 41 weeks pregnant as these back pains and thigh pains driving me crazy I can't sleep because of them. I'm having a home birth so I am hoping everything can be done at home like membrane sweeps etc,? does anyone no? x
My midwife told me, first baby sweep at 40 weeks and if it's 2+ then they won't sweep until 41. .... I'm under Consultant and had a sweep yesterday at 37+5 due to large 3rd baby but only Consultants can authorise before 40 weeks @cheryltomkinson1985 @lilmissy26
had my midwife appointment she said I can have a sweep on my due date if baby not here. she said all my symptoms like back pain and thigh pains is because my body is ready for Labour but at the moment my lil girl is towards my back so I've been told a few things I need to try to get her to swing around to the front. I just hope it works. xx
