have you tried nipple stimulation?

The pressure points you refer to, are they on the inner aspects of your heels? Also try an inch down from your neck (at the back - dh/dp?) at either side of your neck?

why were staff dismissive of you? that's 14 days on monday isn't it?

It's your baby, your choice. The rates of complications rise naturally toward the end and not as a result of a breaking down placenta.

I think i got to the stage where it was definitely better out than in, by any means possible.
If you are willing to try multiple sweeps you must really have an aversion to induction - I hope it happens soon for you.

Blueuch
Stopped at one sweep (though he had to have two attempts to give it - does that count )
Anyone complaining of smears hurting should be forced to have a sweep to put things into perspective.
I was induced sorry.
