I'm 41+1, have bee anxious about the labour and child birth throughout the whole pregnancy but now it's this late stage I am a nervous wreck, I can burst into years just thinking about the trauma I'm going to go through. It's not just the pain that worries me it's the whole process of child birth I find gross.
I'm die to have a membrane sweep this afternoon (declined one a few days ago as couldnt bare the thought of it but as time is ticking I have reluctantly agreed to this one)
Can anyone give me their experiences of a sweep, is it painful? How long does it take? Do you listen to heartbeat first etc? Is partner present? Did it work for you?
Sorry for all the questions but my mind has gone into overdrive and I am panicking about everything . . First timer as you may have guessed!
