@elizabethgilman, oh crap, thats what im trying to avoid! i'm 2cm dilated

Your midwife or doctor will carry out the procedure. During an internal examination, she will try to insert a finger into the opening of your cervix (neck of your womb) and then gently but firmly move her finger around. This action should separate the membranes of the amniotic sac surrounding your baby from your cervix. This separation releases hormones (prostaglandins) which may kick-start your labour.  @babyboy449

No my cervix stayed closed. My body was being stubborn, I ended up needing a c section

What's a membrane sweep? Sorry if that sounds stupid

omg! 😔😓

i had 2 membrane sweeps and i went over by a weeks and 4 days ..

@elizabethgilman, are you dilated at all?
