I know in my area they won't do a sweep until you are over 40 weeks . You can only ask though , they can only say no!!

you would only get a sweep if your cervix was 'favourable'. I think this means it would have had to have started thinning out already and you would have to be a little dilated to allow the sweep to take place. You can only ask - the worst they can do is say no.
