Today I had my 38 week check up got a cervical check but I noticed this time she went in a lotttttt deeper & took her time. Is it possible my doctor did a stretch & sweep?? It never usually hurts when she checks me but today was PAINFUL!!! Ever since I have been having a lot of back pain/cramping & lots of stomach tightening. I also noticed blood in my undies.

It’s possible but that’s really screwed up if she did without consent! I’d be pissed. cervical checks are highly unnecessary and can introduce a risk of infection.

I’m actually really curious if she did! Todays check was something else. It was so painful & she actually dug her fingers in there😭 I’ll be really mad if I find out she did. But for now I’ll keep track of my symptoms.

that’s definitely something you should have to give your consent for. It doesn’t really matter bc it only works if baby is ready but it’s just not necessary

She probably did I know when I got my membrane swept sweep whatever lol it was so uncomfortable and I was cramping instantly and they gave me pad and said I might have a little blood , I went into labor like three days after

Hmm I’m really curious because she even made a comment saying ‘you might not even make it to your next appointment’ 🤔

I would say she did that's crazy she didn't mention anything , I know when I got mines done as soon as I sat up I felt like I was gonna pass out ,throw up ,and broke out into a sweat it definitely got things going

Sounds like she did. My dr asked me if I wanted her to do it and I had the same sort of symptoms that day and next and went into labor the day after. But I was going to ask her to do it anyway.. 🤣
