Hi all!
Does anyone know how engaged baby's head has to be before the Midwife's are able to do a stretch and sweep?
I'm 37w tomorrow and my consultant has said that I can have s&s from 38w (as I'm trying to avoid a second c section!) Saw the midwife yesterday and she said baby is currently 4/5 engaged so wouldnt be able to do the s&s next week if baby didn't come down further as there would be a risk that my waters would break and the cord could slip out...
Needless to say I will be spending a lot of time sat on my birthing ball between now and next Friday!
Thanks in advance!
