Been in slow labour since Thursday and still nothing happening, I'm booked in for a sweep on Wednesday but it feels like forever away

It sucks right? Currently 41+1 and know how you feel. It'll happen OP, only 2 weeks left maximum!

That's shit.

Have you tried nipple twiddling? Orgasms? Clary sage? Look up acupressure points too... can't hurt

Tried literally everything, but slow labour from Thursday surely they shouldn't have left me this long 😭😭

Try to keep things as normal as possible, rather than 'waiting' for your baby.
Laughter is good for oxytocin, put a funny film on, relax and get sleep when you can . Good luck 💚
