Hi ladies I know it’s a bit premature as I’m only 31 weeks but does anyone know when sweeps are given to encourage labour after your due date
My consultant said you can ask your midwife from 36 onwards and have twice a week from 38! I had no idea and funnily enough my consultant did one on the day and I had baby 2 days later, so I never went through with asking the midwife and seeing if they'd do it!
Mine wanted me to get booked in for one at 38 weeks but I refused it till after my due date xx
I asked for one at a growth scan and I was 39+1 and she tried but couldn’t cause I wasn’t dilated at all but she tried- I guess it depends on the midwife/ hospital xx
