I’m getting a membrane sweep Wednesday morning and I’ll be 38 weeks. Mg doctor was telling me I’m 1cm dilated at my 37 week appt and 50% effaced. She also said baby was VERY low which I figured because I can hardly walk plus it’s crazy pressure and sharp pains Nonstop.... so I was wondering are there any other moms who had a really low baby that got the sweep and actually had success with it? I’m seeing so many mixed reviews on it working.

Yes I was 3cm 40% effaced when got my sweep, so I went walking and did nipple stimulation because I was cramping. I had my baby that night.

At 3cm 75% effaced...The doctors told me it was a 50% chance of the sweep working. It was 2 days before my scheduled induction. I was determined to get him out naturally. A few hours after the sweep, my cramping gradually got worse and worse and by 2:46am the next morning my baby boy was in my arms. And to add on the the fast labor, I birthed him and shot him out in 15 mins time. Ouch! In addition to the sweep I did a lot of walking and bouncing on my birth ball; who knows if it helped lol Good luck!

No need to worry! For me it wasn't painful just really uncomfortable so prepare yourself and try to relax and hopefully it all works out! Just remember to keep moving.
