Good Luck, hopefully it will start things off for you.

Ooh good luck! Can I ask, how did you get a sweep before 40 weeks? I will have an appointment at 39+3 - last time I saw midwife she said they wouldn't sweep before 40, but if like to request one?
Hope it went well! :)

I was sooo looking forward to my sweep yesterday when I was 40+2, as they also wouldn't offer it to me before 40wks :(
I had a mw that couldn't reach my cervix and refused to try more as may be uncomfortable/painful for me..............so now totally bummed.

I have never found an internal to be uncomfortable/painful so would have been willing for her to try but nope, no luck.

aww thats a shame purple i know the chances are 50/50 so im not pinning all hopes on it will wait and see what happens tomorrow i can only hope for the best
