Had my ob apoitment today . 1cm dilated , 50% effaced . Wasnt dilated last week. Hopefully this process speeds up .

@jocelynhosford17, mine was done at 38 weeks and again at 39 weeks. I went into labour that same day and had a quick birth too which was great but normally it intensifies the pain for lot of women. I would just let your body progress naturally - take the epidural if you feel you need it though. I got it - best thing ever haha and it didn’t hurt to get

@bw4b thanks !! Good luck too you :-)

I had a membrane sweep with both my boys (twice each) and went into labor 4 hours after having the second done. For me it works and both deliveries were good. All depends on the person and their body. We are all different :) Had my first one done with this little boo yesterday. Had some bloody show and some cramping and contractions last night that fizzled out. Hoping it will happen soon or at least after the next sweep :) good luck to you @jocelynhosford17, Hope your babe comes soon for you :)

@carusod91 im hoping i go naturally on my own , when do they offee you a membrane sweep?

Whatever you do, don’t get a membrane sweep unless absolutely necessary lol it makes labour way more intense. I rarely have regrets but this is one of mine
