Just curious really how quickly other people have gone into labour after a sweep. I had one this morning and am booked for an induction next thursday...

I had one at 10am ish and my waters broke at 11pm, labour started just after 1 am and baby born 3.20am.

From the stuff I've ready they reckon if if works you will go into labour in 48hrs.

(I had on on Thursday morning, no sign of any action yet...)

if you have not gone into labour around 48 hours after , it has not got you going

lots of sex and nipple stim !
