Hello, Can anyone explain the above to me please? I'm 41 weeks and have one more midwife apt before induction this weekend but fear that, as with last week, she'll refuse to do a sweep because the head's not engaged... (DC1 didn't engage til labour either). I'd really rather they tried at least one sweep rather than just sending me direct for induction - are sweeps totally inadvisable if the head's not engaged, even in a second pregnancy? Thanks in advance A x
