Will they give me a sweep if I've had a show?

Due to see the midwife tomorrow at 41 weeks for a sweep - but had a show today - will they still give it to me? Had irregular contractions for the last 20 hours and not sure if waters have broken or not (wasn't sure with DS either!)

I had a big watery show with my DC2. They should give you a sweep to get things moving.
Get yourself bouncing on your birthing ball and have plenty of brisk walks (bump and snow allowing)!
Not long now!!

I had had irregular contractions for a day or so and a mild show when i was given a sweep. had a much more dramatic show and stronger contractions a few hours later and DD was born the following day. Good luck!
